When buying a Fondue set, does it matter if the description says “chocolate”?

Question by adribug354: When buying a Fondue set, does it matter if the description says “chocolate”?
I’ve been looking at small fondue sets on amazon and a lot of them say “chocolate fondue set”. Would these work for cheese as well? I’m wanting to buy 2, but don’t want to spend tons of money and all the cheaper ones specify chocolate. Does it really matter?

Also, for anyone out there who does fondue a lot, do the kinds with tea lights work well?

I would say you are okay with the ones that say chocolate…they can be used for cheese as well. The tealight ones really do not get hot enough in my opinion.

Have fun; fondue is great for small gatherings!!

Discover Chocolate: The Ultimate Guide to Buying, Tasting, and Enjoying Fine Chocolate

Discover Chocolate: The Ultimate Guide to Buying, Tasting, and Enjoying Fine Chocolate

There’s a difference between a chocoholic and a chocophile, and Clay Gordon is decidedly in the latter category. It’s not enough for him to simply love this rich indulgence; he is equally addicted to the finer points of choosing it, just as a wine aficionado enjoys researching different varietals and developing a taste for particularly fine ones.

In Discover Chocolate, Gordon opens a world that extends far beyond cookbooks and coffee-table books that feature assorted gooey shots. Yes, his primer is packed with more than a hundred gorgeous photographs of chocolate and truffles, but this is a guide that also includes a handy rating system, a field guide for discerning among different types and styles of chocolates, an overview of how cacao becomes chocolate (including maps of where cacao is grown), advice for pairing chocolate and wine, and, perhaps most important of all, how and where to shop for the best chocolate in the world.

A little knowledge can be a dangerous thing, and Clay Gordon is there to help you relish every drop of it, discerning why you like certain types but not others and generating a personal list of favorites. This is the book every true chocolate enthusiast has been craving.
