Chocolate fondue is an American invention from 1966, and Chalet Suisse in New York City created it. The restaurant ceased to exist after the late 1980s, but the delicious social dessert has become popular within the past five years (all those Gen Xers like myself who grew up with fondue in the 1970s).
The story goes that when Chalet Suisse relocated to fifth and 49th in New York City, the Swiss chocolate manufacturer of a new product called Toblerone was looking for a way to market the chocolate bar. Their publicist Beverly Allen made a sweet fondue from the candy bar.
The Swiss people thought she was nuts. Knorad Egi, the Swiss-born chef of Chalet Suisse, didn’t think it was a crazy idea, and chocolate fondue was born.
