This dairy-free chocolate fondue is a decadent treat made with creamy coconut cream, dark chocolate, and just a touch of honey or maple syrup. The mixture of fresh, juicy fruits provides a refreshing contrast to the indulgent chocolate.
1. Decadent Chocolate Fondue
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup coconut cream
- 2-3 tablespoons raw honey or pure maple syrup
- 9 oz dark chocolate, chopped or chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Dippers
- Fresh pineapple, strawberries, raspberries, blueberries

Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the coconut cream and honey/maple syrup. Heat over medium, stirring occasionally, until the mixture begins to simmer.
Remove from heat and add the chopped dark chocolate. Let sit for 1-2 minutes to allow the chocolate to melt.
Whisk the mixture until smooth and the chocolate is fully incorporated. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Transfer the chocolate fondue to a fondue pot or a bowl set over a small flame to keep it warm and melted.
Arrange the various fruit and berries around the fondue pot for dipping. You can also include any other desired dippers like pear or banana slices, and edible flowers for garnish.
Serve the warm, rich chocolate fondue immediately, providing fondue forks or skewers for guests to dip the fruit and other items into the melted chocolate.
It’s a fun, interactive dessert perfect for entertaining, special occasions, or anytime you want to enjoy a chocolate-dipping experience. Adjust the amount of honey/syrup to suit your desired level of sweetness.
