How to Make Chocolate Fondu

  1. Finely chop the dark chocolate and place it in a heatproof bowl.
  2. Add heavy cream and a pinch of salt to the chocolate (optional).
  3. Place the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (double boiler method) or use a microwave-safe bowl and melt in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth and creamy. Ensure the water doesn't touch the bowl.
  4. While the chocolate melts, prepare your dipping items: hull and halve strawberries, and arrange all the fruits in an attractive platter.
  5. Once the chocolate is melted and smooth, transfer it to a fondue pot or a heat-safe serving bowl.
  6. Place the fondue pot over a low heat or keep it warm using a candle warmer to maintain a smooth, dipping consistency.
  7. Arrange the prepared fruits, ladyfingers, and other cookies around the fondue pot.
  8. Provide fondue forks to your guests and let them enjoy creating their own delicious combinations!
