Ingredients
  

  • 300 gm chocolate (I used 54% Callebaut but you could use a mixture of milk and dark or flavoured chocolate ( orange, mint, berry), use a couverture chocolate like Lindt or similar)
  • 250 ml thickened cream 1 cup
  • 6 pcs fruit per person (strawberries pineapple, blueberries, mandarin, kiwifruit, banana)
  • Skewers I used thick bamboo skewers but any other would be fine

Instructions
 

  • After you prepare the tin and the candle, set it aside to light when the chocolate is ready. Make sure the candle is not long enough to touch the bottom of the chocolate.
  • Make up your fruit skewers or simply put a platter of fruit and the skewers out ready to help yourself as you go along.
  • Put the cream and chocolate into a microwave bowl and set for one minute. Stir till the chocolate is melted. If necessary return to the microwave for 20 second stints and stir till smooth. Do not overheat. Alternatively melted in a bowl over hot water.
  • Pour the chocolate into your heatproof dish and set it over the flame.
  • Now you can begin the fun of dipping your skewers
  • *Note:. Watch kids around flames
