Cookin’ Stuff manager, Ken Mitchell, says you can’t go wrong with the Cuisinart’s Electric three quart Fondue Pot. What makes this one so appealing is its versatility. It has eight different heat settings for everything from chocolate and cheese to beef, broth and seafood. People tend to get creative when it comes to fondue. I’ve been to events where the hosts melt dark chocolate and white chocolate and pour the two together to make a beautiful swirl. Personally, I like a beer-cheddar fondue with bread cubes and good sausage. The Cusinart Electric Fondue Pot serves up to 8 people and comes with steel forks and a terrific recipe book. It’s available online or in the store for $49.99
A less expensive option is “Fun-Do to Go” which is 13- piece, three in one Fondue Set, which includes a Stoneware Double Boiler Insert, safety burner, 6 stainless steel forks and one convenient plastic case with handle. It also includes a terrific recipe book. This set sells for $39.99.

For the best cup of coffee, beans should be ground right before the coffee is made.
