Emmi’s “All In One Fondü” concept is a ready-to-eat cheese fondue contained in a microwaveable metal bowl with an easypeel opening made of aluminium foil. This is a highly original Consumer Convenience aspect from the Ardagh Group and Amcor Flexibles. “All In One Fondü” allows for an easy, quick and clean preparation of a cheese fondue at any time. The lid comprises Amcor Flexibles’ AluFix® Retort Pro membrane, which is part of Ardagh Group’s convenient lid system Easy Peel®. The membrane is sealed onto a metal ring, allowing an easy, safe and quick opening while guaranteeing a safe closure of the bowl. Fondues can be time consuming and messy due to the complexity of setting them up. But here we have a product where all the packaging works together to make the concept work. The alufoil lid is a core element. And even the tea light holder is alufoil. The “All in One Fondü” concept is a great example of packaging improving consumer convenience, and Amcor is pleased to be able to contribute an alufoil lid robust enough to stand up to retort processing, yet easy to open for consumers. It is a key element to provide the highest product protection and a long shelf life. To prepare the “All In One Fondü” the bowl is first heated in a microwave or traditional oven and kept at the right temperature with a tea light in a specifically designed can holder. The fondue can be directly eaten from the bowl.
