Dip Into Something Different

Dip Into Something Different published by The Melting Pot Fondue Restaurant chain is now in its 5th printing and has sold almost 37,500 copies. The success of this book can be attributed to several factors.

The food subject: Fondue is a unique food, and while it may seem simple to melt some cheese or chocolate in a fondue pot, it is a bit more complicated than that. The Melting Pot is "the authority" on fondue in the US. Their Executive Chef has developed a plethora of fabulously good tasting fondue dishes that you can try at home.

The experience: Fondue is more than a food; it is an eating experience. What fun it is to have several fondue pots going and to try different flavors of meats, cheeses and breads? And don't even get me started on dessert fondue--these flavors are exquisite.

The package: This cookbook is a beautiful package of photographs featuring vintage fondue pots and utensils combined with fabulous recipes and artistic illustrations. It is a beautiful book topped off with a ribbon marker and manufactured using recycled paper and agri-inks.

The Price: At $29.95, this book is a real bargain, especially when you factor in that there are three redeemable coupons in each book for use at a Melting Pot location that are worth more than the price of the book.

The availability: This book is so easy to obtain. It is available through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books-a-Million, as well as online at The Cookbook Marketplace or The Melting Pot's web site. The other option is to simply drop into your local Melting Pot restaurant and pick up a copy--you will be glad you did.
