Delicious, quite boozy & need bigger portion size
I usually buy our fondue mixes elsewhere for more than double the price so wasn't expecting much here but it is LOVELY! I will certainly be buying this from now on. I will say, the portion size is tiny so no idea how you'd get 6 portions out of it! It is more boozy than our usual one but can't complain about that! recommended.
Yum!
lovely, please let us buy this again!
Get past the awful smell.. & it tastes disgusting
Absolutely vile. It has an intriguing aroma, somewhere between plastic and wet dog. Trying to get past that, I taste tested it with some cubes of bread but it didn't get any better. A horrible slippery synthetic 'cheese' (I use the term loosely) with a tasteless plastic texture. Truly revolting.
Great and easy.
Great! Surprised by negative reviews... When I opened packet I poured out the liquid that had separated, I did rub garlic around the pan (I don’t own a fondue pot) as it said to and I cooked it on the hob. I did not microwave it- don’t be lazy! After bringing to boil and simmering, I did then add: a wee bit ground nutmeg, a very generous grind of black pepper and a tiny tiny grated garlic clove as the packet suggests. Will buy again! Ski holiday meal at home during lockdown. And I’d allow one per adult.
Great fondue - check the quantity!
This product says it is 200g and the serving size is 30g per person. If you've ever eaten fondue in Switzerland or anywhere else, 30g is not a portion size. 300g would be nearer! These are available on 3 for 2 price, so buy 3. You may only use 1 each, but that is nearer the quantity we think you need.
Don’t let this put you off proper Swiss fondue.
Served two and tasted quite unlike any fondue I’ve ever eaten....superb it definitely wasn’t! I usually prepare cheese fondue myself and didn’t rate the taste of the unspecified cheeses used in this pack. I won’t be using this ready made product again.
Worst Fondue Ever
My husband is Swiss (and a chef). We were looking forward to a Fondue, but a bit surprised that the label declared it to be 6 portions. Firstly, the taste is nothing like a Swiss Fondue. It tastes more like melted cheese spread. Secondly the pack is 200 grams. It did not even give us two portions. A proper fondue is 150 grams cheese (Gruyere, Emmentaler and Sbrinz) and 100 ml white wine per person, some Kirsch and a little corn starch. Very disappointing.
Disgusting
Absolutely disgusting. Overpowering flavor of alcohol (white wine) which ruined the cheese. Wouldn't recommend to anyone.
Buying this again. Too boozy for the kids.

Makes a quick and tasty lunch
Great quality. Super easy to prepare for a quick and delicious lunch for 2. Microwave for a couple of minutes in a bowl (if you like garlic then rub the bowl with a clove of garlic first to flavour cheese) till it's warm and runny then dip in with chunks of crusty bread and serve with a salad. Authentic strong cheese and wine taste might not suit everyone but we loved it.
