Ingredients for Chocolate Orange Fondue

You only need three simple ingredients for this fondue.

  • Chocolate: You’ll want to use a really good quality chocolate because that’s the star ingredient. I prefer dark or semi-sweet chocolate since we’re using lots of sweet items as dippers.
  • Orange: The zest of two large oranges adds so much sweet citrus goodness to this fondue.
  • Heavy cream: To create the perfect thick, rich consistency.

How to Make Chocolate Orange Fondue

You can make the fondue either in a fondue pot or in a saucepan on the stove top.

Heat the pot over low heat. Add chocolate, orange zest and heavy cream. Stir until the chocolate melts and everything comes together.

That’s it! Because the fondue is made so quickly, I recommend preparing all your dippers before so everything is ready to serve right away.

Not Feeling Like Orange?

If you’re not feeling that orange chocolate combo, no worries. Simply leave out the orange zest and make a classic chocolate fondue.

How to Store and Reheat Leftovers

If you have any leftover chocolate fondue, simply store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

When you’re ready to reheat, there are two options. You can put it back in the fondue pot or saucepan over low heat and stir until it thins back out to the original texture.

You can also microwave it. Microwave in 30 second increments, stirring each time, until you have the right consistency.
