I am having a fondue party soon!- A "Flashback to the 70s" bash. Can anyone help me with recipes, etc?

We are going to be going "all out" so to speak, with clothes from that era as well as music, and of course food. Everyone says that FONDUE is the thing to serve. I'd like for you to share your easy fondue recipes as well as what foods you used for dipping. For the fondue, I'm looking for all sorts of recipes from savory cheese to sultry chocolate. I have checked the net and found lots of sites, but would would really like to hear about is your personal experiences with throwing 70s theme parties complete with fondue! Thanks!!!I am having a fondue party soon!- A "Flashback to the 70s" bash. Can anyone help me with recipes, etc?
The following *very easy* chocolate fondue recipe is a combination of

several other recipes and some information I received from others on

the net a few weeks ago.



Ingredients: 1/2 cup or 150ml pure cream

1 x 250gm block of GOOD dark chocolate (definitely not

compound chocolate %26amp; the better the chocolate, the better

the fondue!)

1 - 2 tablespoons of rum or your favourite liqueur



Bring cream to a gentle boil. Remove from heat and add broken up

chocolate. Stir until chocolate has completely melted. Be patient!

Return to very gentle heat only if you have to. Finally, add rum or

liqueur and stir until combined. (Do not add liqueur while the

chocolate mixture is over heat.)



Use chopped fresh fruit to dip in fondue - especially bananas, rock

melon, pineapple, pears, kiwi fruit, orange and mandarin segments and,

of course, strawberries.

Try foodtv.com Look up Good Eats. There is an entire episode dedicated to that subject.

Get some good disco music, white suits and shoes for the men, puffy hair and Saturday night fever disco dresses for the ladies. Maybe even the fat Elvis costume from Vegas would be great along with The Bee Gees.

Have fun.

Now I haven't tried any of these, and I've never had a fondue party, but I have eaten fondue in a restaurant and it was good. The thing that took the longest was cooking the meat in a broth fondue. It was all delicious though.

I hope you have a rockin party! Let us know how it turns out!
