# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • Its the kind of dessert that demands you slow down and actually talk to each other between bites
  • The combination of dark and milk chocolate creates this perfect balance that makes everyone close their eyes involuntarily
02 -
  • Any water getting into the chocolate will cause it to seize into a grainy mess so make sure all your utensils are completely dry
  • If your chocolate does seize you can sometimes rescue it by whisking in a tiny bit more cream one teaspoon at a time
03 -
  • Chop your chocolate into uniform pieces before you start heating the cream for even melting
  • If the fondue thickens too much while eating stir in a teaspoon of warm cream to bring it back to life
