Master Class Cast Iron Meat / Cheese / Chocolate Fondue Set (21 x 18 cm) - Red

Good news for fondue fans – this classic Swiss dish is well and truly back in fashion.

There aren't many table centrepieces more entertaining than a hot fondue pot. Suitable for cheese, meat and chocolate fondues, this Master Class Red Cast Iron Fondue Set is fantastic for entertaining guests at dinner parties, or putting fun twists on after-dinner desserts.

This fondue pot is produced from the highest quality cast iron, with a hard-wearing and stylish enamel finish.

Enjoy a Whole Range of Fondue Dishes

You can use this fondue set for all sorts of indulgent fondue recipes.

Melt a cheese fondue and enjoy morsels of bread, chunks of vegetables and tangy Granny Smith apples. It's great with cheddar or camembert, or, if you'd prefer a more traditional fondue, try Swiss favourites, such as gruyère or emmental.

Or try melting chunks of creamy chocolate to serve as an indulgent after-dinner treat, along with marshmallows, strawberries and slices of banana.

It's also ideal for a fondue bourguignonne – where you cook small cubes of beef with herbs on the fondue forks.

Dual Fuel Burner with Adjustable Snuffer

Bringing your fondue to the ideal temperature is easy with the dual fuel burner. Simply fill it with methylated spirits or gel fuel (supplied separately) and light to get it burning.

There's an adjustable snuffer, so you can easily adjust the flame once your cheese, chocolate or oil has reached the right temperature. And with the cast iron pot's superior heat retention properties, you don't have to use as much fuel either.

Features

Stays hotter for longer

Cast iron is great at retaining heat. This makes the fondue pot a great choice for dinner parties with friends or family – you can let the conversation flow, safe in the knowledge that your fondue will stay warm and delicious.

Fondue without the mix-ups

When you're in the midst of enjoying a fondue, it’s easy to forget which fork is yours. This isn't a problem with this cast iron fondue set, however. It includes six stainless steel fondue forks, each one with a colour-coded end so you can avoid any embarrassing mix-ups.

Great table entertainment

With its strong fondue stand and flat base plate, this fondue set is fantastic to have at the centre of your dining table. The pot's lustrous red finish is sure to stand-out - whether you're hosting guests or simply enjoying an after dinner indulgence with a twist.

Master Class cast iron fondue sets

The perfect accompaniment for an evening of entertainment, this cast iron fondue set is also available in cream (KCFONDUEBEI) and black (KCFONDUEBLK) (pictured).

    This is a really good set. after visiting Chamonix earlier in the year (alpine cheese Heaven) we decided to get one.
    A good tip we found if you are having cheese fondue,has it can be a bit heavy, try having some cherry tomotoes with it.
    Its Easy to use, and clean.
    This set was also very good value for the money, so we have no complaints about it at all.
    Many a fondue to follow

    Sturdy and good value item. It gets used a lot - I tend not to use the lid at all as it restricts the opening and to be honest it isn't necessary at all. Ok, the forks occasionally get a bit tangled because of no lid, but all part of the fun! Easy to light and easy to keep clean

    I got this for my wife. It's good and sturdy and seems to do everything that a fondue set should do... Bear in mind, if you get it (or another fondue set for that matter) that fondue making can be tricky - different recipes give different advice. It's best to practice a few times before you make a disaster at your dinner party. Also, heat can be a real issue - if the temperature is too high then your fondue could separate, if too low then it will just congeal and get cold. We got fondue gel for this - the first time it seemed to be too hot, so the next time we used a tealight which had the opposite problem. I think the burner in this set can be adjusted (to some extent) so we will have to try that next time.

    For the great price, I was amazed this came exactly - if not better than - as advertised. Appears to be very good quality (heavy!) cast iron, and made a great cheese fondue first time around. Friends thought it was definitely Le Creuset.
    Make sure you also buy some gel cartridges (or similar).
    And I now need to buy extra forks, so I can share the joy around with a bigger party of people!

    I ordered the fondue gift set to take with us to Switzerland (I know, coals to Newcastle and all that!!) for a Christmas/New Year skiing holiday. Unfortunately I made the mistake of not checking the contents on receipt, preferring to leave the packaging intact as it was a Christmas gift and had to travel with us by car to our destination. When my wife opened the set in Switzerland we found that although the contents were complete, the enamel on the pan itself was badly chipped, leaving us with the difficult decision between changing our New Year's Eve dining plans in order to return the set to the UK for return to Amazon, or pressing ahead regardless. We decided on the latter.

    As a fondue set it worked fine and, aside from the chipped enamel, the set looked stylish and did everything that you expect a fondue set to do ie heat fondue! Using the burner was straightforward (even though we didn't strictly follow the instructions in terms of the fuel used) and it washed up easily. A very good value product at the Amazon price - I have seen less stylish sets at much higher prices in the UK (and certainly in Switzerland!). Would certainly have been a five star review but for the chipped enamel which, though it has little impact on functionality, is likely to get worse over time.

    We are 99.9% confident that the damage occurred prior to delivery to us, not in transit to Switzerland, because the set (still in its original packaging) was carefully packed along with glassware which survived the 800+ mile journey unscathed! Moral of the story is to check your goods when you receive them, not after reaching the point of no return!

    This is an excellent set!

    It is easy to use, looks great, has a good burner with heat control and the pot is just the right size for 4-6 people.

    The forks are colour coded so you don't mix them up.

    I bought mine as a gift for my girlfriend, and I have never seen anyone smile so much...after all, everyone loves fondue!

    Highly recommended.

    looks and feels as an expensive one. very heavy but does the job nicely. the flame holder is a bit on the cheap side but is functional.
    Only flaw are the forks. the handles are held by plastic caps which melted and got loose on the first use and started to rust off straight after the first wash. had to get a new set of different make which was cheap anyway. the pot itself feels like is worth a lot more than the price paid, so i'm very happy with it

    Schönes Fondue, tolle Verarbeitungsqualität. Wollte zuerst ein Fondue der Marke "Le Creuset" kaufen, bin dann nach eingehender Recherche hier auf dieses Angebot gestossen und muss sagen das Preis-Leistung-Verhältnis überzeugt. Warum viel Geld ausgeben, wenn man für einen kleineren Betrag dieses tolle Fondue kaufen kann.
    Freue mich schon auf den Einsatz an Weihnachten.

    Me ha sorprendido gratamente la calidad y el diseño de la founde. EL color rojo es precioso, esmaltado exterior y interior (en blanco). El soporte para la cazuela es muy estable y parece muy resistente así como el hornillo para el fuego. En general creo que es una muy buena compra calidad-precio haviendo visto otras foudes por un precio similar en tiendas físicas que no tenian para nada la calidad de esta.
