Tiger brand Fondue is a ready-made, heat-and-serve preparation made according to the traditional Swiss recipe, which blends Emmental, Gruyere, white wine, Kirsch brandy and special spices. This product takes all of the guesswork out of preparing a delicious fondue. It has a bold flavor, a creamy texture, and a light color. Perfect for a main meal or as an appetizer, fondue is always a hit when the weather turns cold. Don't worry if you don't own a fondue pot. You can heat Tiger Fondue in any pot, or even microwave it if you are in a pinch.

Comments about Tiger Fondue:

We regularly enjoy the fondue bazaar at The Melting Pot in San Antonio. However, for a quick meal at home this product is convenient and enjoyable. We add a touch of brandy, kirsch, nutmeg, and pepper to taste. With small pieces of french bread, and a nice white wine we are back in Austria, Switzerland, or Combloux, France. Easy to prepare and soooo eay to enjoy.

excellent!

This was excellent! I just wanted something that could be heated quickly and would make a great weeknight dinner. This is perfect with a loaf of crusty french bread and a glass of wine.

Sadly, I can no longer locate this excellent cheese fondue mix. The secret is the white wine and kirsch (cheery) brandy that is in the mix. Great price as well.

Great price for an ok base product - add some low-salt cheese, pieces of a peeled potato and some lemon to counteract the saltiness of the product, add some kirsch, white wine and garlic cloves to your taste - and voila!

Comments about Tiger Fondue:

I wanted an appetizer that I could put on a separate table at a holiday party that would be interactive as I invited guests from two separate group listings. As hoped, the guests surrounded the table and got to know each other as they dipped various breads and sausages. It was a retro item that generated interesting conversation.

Foodie, Frequent Diner

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Tiger Fondue:

TIGER FONDUE IS THE CLOSEST YOU'LL GET TO AUTHENTIC FRENCH TASTE WITHOUT ALL THE FUSS OF DOING IT YOURSELF. THE CONSISTENCY IS PERFECT--CLINGS TO THE BREAD WITHOUT CLUMPING. MY HOMEMADE VERSION OFTEN SEPARATES AND CLUMPS--TIGER FONDUE IS THE BEST AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED. LIVING IN A SMALL TOWN, THIS IS THE ONLY WAY TO ENJOY THIS TREAT UNLESS YOU MAKE IT YOURSELF.

Comments about Tiger Fondue:

My Swiss family loves this stuff and over the years we have used this product to introduce dozens of people (Americans and Australians) to the wonders of Swiss fondues. Sure you can make fondues from scratch that you might prefer but these packets contain a fondue that is relatively inexpensive and incredibly easy to prepare and that almost everyone will enjoy.
