One of the greatest loves of a Mid-Century Modern lifestyle is throwing Fondue parties. Remember back when it was all the range. It was fun and easy! A chocolate fondue is a great main event for any party back then and today. However, to make it special and different – add a spicy component to the mixture. Lots of people are trying a Mexican or Spicy Chocolate, so add some spice to your next Fondue party.
