Will this melt real chocolate and cheese?

It never got hot enough to melt anything! I was completely frustrated. I ended up giving it to my 4 yr old niece so she could bake with her mommy! I use the microwave for melting now. No hassles!

No. It might keep it warm?? If you melt it before you put it in the device.

Why would you want to add anything bigger than a chocolate chip anyway? The motor probably will not burn out, but it could affect the freezing of the ice cream/sorbet process.

It has to be hot. Will not dissolve in cold milk. Don't buy this it's really not that great I love Cadbury chocolate but this tastes like weak Swiss miss.

I have melted chocolate in the bags but not mething really hot. I don't know if you could hold on to the bag if something were that warm.

I haven't tried it, but that type of cheese is very soft, so I think it might not work well. If you try putting it in the freezer first, that may work.

Yes, it does. I blend it everyday with a Greek yogurt and kefir. I do it just with a spoon and small circles. I tried it in a blender and it liquifies the yogurt too much. If you mix it in a blender it will be done in seconds. I use Vitamix. Hope you are using raw milk ( just teasing...I don't touch conventional processed milk). It will make an excellent and mainly nutritious chocolate milk.

No. It would melt. Only use it for covering things that are heated up in the microwave.

I have not tried this but based on how long it took to melt cheese- way too long!!! I would say that it can only keep potatoes warm.

no this item does not melt the chocolate. I had to google the recipe for chocolate fondue. It is tollhouse morsels and vegetable oil to keep it liquid...

It keeps it melted, melt it first in the microwave per the directions. It's a great little machine. Just make sure and clean it out really well when you're done so the chocolate doesn't harden and ruin it. Great buy, love this little machine. I used it for my parents wedding vow renewal and everyone really enjoyed it.

I don't use a microwave oven to melt chocolate it is to easy to burn the chocolateI use the Wilton Chocolate Pro Electric Melting Pot that is available on Amazon

You should be able to. I use mine for soap, but it is food grade silicone so chocolate would be OK.

I ws surprised that it passed the "magnet test" so, though I didn't heat it, I am sure it would work. The question is, Why? Raclete is as much a social dining experience as the more familiar fondue. The heat from two or three tea lights is enough to nicly melt the cheese, which is then slipped onto individual plates. There are special racks to set it above the candles but something effective can be knocked togdether easily. High heat is not needed or desired.

My cheese melted pretty quickly. I used soft cheeses which melt more quickly. I also had the guests melt their cheese while I grilled shrimp and chicken on top. Everything seemed to get done at the same time.
