Tin Fondue Set

Turn an old Altoids tin in to a fondue set.

Add to Favorites Add Your Version

Find a nice square tin and remove the lid.
Bend a piece of wire in to the shape of the tin. Make sure it fits nicely around the tin. Re-inforce the wire shape by wrapping more wire around it.
Cut 4 strips of wire, each about 10". Fold each strip in half, leave a small loop at the bottom and then twist the wire until about half way up.
Attach each strip at each corner of the wire rectangle.
Re-inforce the whole frame by wrapping more wire around it. You have now made your stand.
Place your tin in to your stand. Make sure it's nice and secure.
Pick a nice selection of fondue treats. I recommend strawberries, sliced banana, shortbread cookies and marshmallows.
Light a tea light candle and place it under the frame and tin.
Place a few pieces of chocolate in the tin and leave to melt. Dip your goodies in chocolate and enjoy. Mmm.

We had the candle under it for about 15 minutes and it worked just fine. But yeah, getting a tin made of aluminium is probably a good idea.

Hm, isn't there a problem with the laquer on the tin evaporating or burning? Maybe it would be better to just buy a small cake tin (made of aluminium)...
