Fondue is back in style—and why not? “Dip dining” is such a sophisticated yet simple way to entertain during the fall or holidays. Anolon’s 1-1/2-quart fondue pot bubbles enough Swiss and Gouda for six people to enjoy and, as part of the low-maintenance Professional line of cookware, makes cleanup a piece of cake for the hosts. The pot is made of heavy-gauge anodized aluminum, which heats cheese evenly without hot spots and has long-lasting durability. A triple layer of Dupont’s Autograph nonstick system coats the interior of the pot so baked-on cheese simply wipes out. The fondue heats up with Sterno, which is housed in a holder within the stainless-steel nesting rack. Also made of stainless steel are the handle and a slotted removable utensil holder with room to rest the six included fondue forks. This fondue pot is covered by a lifetime limited warranty. –Cristina Vaamonde
