Preparation

1. Melt the chocolate as described below (in the microwave or using the au bain-marie method).

Microwave method: put 14 oz of chocolate into the smallest ceramic container in the fondue set. Next, place the container in the microwave and heat it up for 30 seconds (at about 600W). Repeat the above until all of the chocolate has melted. Stir thoroughly every 30 seconds to make sure that the chocolate melts evenly.

Au bain-marie method: put 14 oz of chocolate in a pan. Next, suspend the smaller pan over a bigger pan of simmering water. Make sure that no drops of water or steam get into the smaller pan. Melt the chocolate on a medium heat and stir regularly. Pour the melted chocolate into the smallest ceramic container in the fondue set.

2. Fill the biggest ceramic container in the fondue set with 3.4 oz of hot water (up to the level indicated on the container). Next, suspend the smallest container, with the melted chocolate in it, over the biggest container.
3. Light the tea light to keep the chocolate fondue warm.
4. Serve with a range of dippers.
