Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Swissmar Fire Gel 33.8-Ounce Fondue FuelCustomer Review: Great Product Summary: 5 Stars
I have been preparing fondue for over 10 years. The fire gel is excellent for fuel/sterno heated fondue pots. I make my cheese fondue stovetop first and transfer to my CORDLESS cast iron pot. I own both cordless and fuel fondue pots and prefer the fuel style. The setting is more intimate and there is no tangling with a cord. I only use my corded pots for buffet style settings. However, the cheese is not as good once transferred to one's plate and cooled off before eating.
The Swissmar fuel will keep the cheese warm and bubbley. As the cheese content goes down in the pot with use, the flame will need adjusting to keep it from burning. If you have trouble getting your cheese to melt directly over the flame - make sure your pot is preheated; similar to preheating the oven.
Customer Review: Not a great product for a fondue party Summary: 1 Stars
We used this fuel during a recent fondue party and I have to say I wasn't that impressed. It took forever to get this product to light and when it finally did, the gel didn't produce enough heat to melt the cheese in the fondue pot. After fifteen minutes of stirring the cheese in the pot and hoping that it would soon melt, we were forced to switch to the electric fondue pot (we were hoping to be able to use the electric one for the main course and the other pot for the cheese appetizer). Electric fondue pots are definitely the way to go!
Customer Review: fondue gel Summary: 5 Stars
I had found this fondue gel one time at bed bath and beyond,It was so much better than any thing else we had used, It kept the fonduepot hotter than sterno, therefore allowing us to eat and enjoy the meal longer. I tried to go back and purchase it again and couldn't find it anywhere around, and after looking for a while, I found it at Amazon, a larger bottle and less money than it was retail, I am very pleased, and will return for more.

Customer Review: It Burns! It Buuuuuurrrrnnnnssss! Summary: 4 Stars
Standard gel fuel. As usual, last for about 10 minutes less than the time you take to finish the fondue, but you just add a bit more gel fuel and good to go. I'd recommend this product.
