Melting Pot kicked off 2024 by introducing a Melting Pot at Home range for cheese lovers and the brand is capping off the year with the launch of an at-home chocolate fondue collection.
Three types of chocolate fondue are available: the Turtle Milk Chocolate Fondue Bundle, the Cookies & Cream Dark Chocolate Fondue Bundle; and the Fonduefetti White Chocolate Fondue Bundle. In each one, chocolate lovers will find three packs of the Melting Pot’s signature fondue blend, which can be prepared using the stovetop or microwave—no specialized fondue pot needed. To sweeten the experience of dipping fruits, marshmallows and more, the packs also share texture-rich toppings like caramel and candied nuts, cookie and cream crumble or rainbow sprinkles and crunchy sugar cone bits.
