Had a hankering for some chocolatey goodness, so on a whim, Fred cobbled together a fondue kit.
Step 1: He gathered some hardware.
Step 1: He gathered some hardware.
That was it. Just castoffs, really. A ceramic bowl, a tea candle and a wire coathanger.
Then, Step 2: he set it up. Like this:
As you can see, Fred merely cut and coiled the wire so that it supported the bowl just above the candle. Nothing to it, but wire snips and pliers helped.
Finally, Step 3: We tossed a few squares of dark chocolate into the bowl and lit the candle. Three minutes later, we were twirling chunks of fresh fruit in the melted chocolate.
We went with pear and apple, but you can dip pretty much whatever you wish. Bliss.
Hey, if you get a hankering — or wanna impress your friends — you too can be like my personal handyman Fred and just fonDO it.
