I'm allergic to almonds. Is there a way to make this fondue without almond milk?

This fondue is way too expensive. There are cheaper recipes out there that taste just as good.

I tried making this fondue, but it turned out lumpy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This fondue was a little too sweet for my taste, but I think it would be perfect for people who like their desserts on the sweeter side.

I'm not a big fan of custard, but this fondue was surprisingly good. It was light and fluffy, and the almond flavor was really nice.

I love that this fondue is made with almond milk. It's a great dairy-free option that's still rich and creamy.
