But beware of their fondue-pot like caquelons! They look exactly like a caquelon, but when you heat them on the flame, they break apart. I know it, because I had to eat fondue from the tablecloth last Christmas.

Also in Cost plus did they sell heat proove ceramic pots (not especially for fondue), which probably works fine too, they were plain blue or green, but then you need still a rechaud or a camping cooker.
