Do you want a fun, easy way to make s’mores at home without a fire pit? The TerraFlame s’more making kit is easy to set up, conveniently portable – and the real flames even crackle! But there are more s’mores kits to choose from – we compare them below…
Why Use a Tabletop Fire Bowl for Making S’mores?
1. First of all, you can use this tabletop fire bowl indoors or outside. It uses clean-burning gel fuel, so you can use it year round and virtually anywhere. Ultimately, you can get a lot more use out of it. You can even take it with you to parties.
2. Second, this “how to make s’mores kit” comes with 3 gel fuel canisters. They are easy to use and mess-free because the fuel stays contained within the can. Simply place the canister into the stone fire bowl.
Then, open the lid and light the gel. You’ll hear the flame start to crackle. Flames will last about 3 hours, and you can close and re-use the can if you don’t finish the fuel.
Note: I can attest to how awesome these TerraFlame fire bowls are, since I own one myself. The flames really crackle, and the gel lasts the full 3 hours. Flames even give off some warmth, adding to the ambiance like an authentic fire pit.
3. Making s’mores is a fun, entertaining activity for holiday parties or special events. Bring your portable fire bowl to a potluck, kids’ birthday party, family movie night, picnic or even take it out for Halloween.
The included recipe booklet provides complete step-by-step smores-making instructions,. Plus, you get more gourmet DIY ideas using marshmallows, chocolate and graham, crackers.

TerraFlame Smore-Making Kit VS Others:
Although you can save money on a TerraFlame kit bundle, there are cheaper kits available. I compared similar products below so you can see what you get.
1. Sharper Image Electric Tabletop S’mores Maker Kit
First of all, Sharper Image makes an electric version that costs about $40-45. It includes skewers and compartments for marshmallows, crackers, etc.. in a cute gift-like package.
However, it this model produce flames, and you need an electrical outlet to plug it in. Therefore, you can’t easily set it up on a dining room table or living room coffee table. That said, you don’t need to buy replacement fuel.
2. City Bonfire S’mores Night Pack
Second, City Bonfire has a $40 S’mores package with 2 skewers. It even includes graham crackers, marshmallows and chocolate (for 2 people). This option could be good for a date night or single-use.
You don’t get a serving tray or a fancy fire bowl. However, the main disadvantage is the expensive fuel cost. Replacement fuel canisters cost about double that of the TerraFlame. Plus, the fuel doesn’t make crackling sounds.
3. Chicago Metallic S’more Maker
Chicago Metallic makes and 8-piece Smores set that includes skewers, serving dish and fire pit. However, you need to purchase the fuel separately.
The good news with this s’more making kit is that these 6-hour canisters cost less than other fuel cans I’ve found. Plus, they last longer. In a bulk 12-pack, each replacement fuel can costs less than $2.50.
Note: Overall, the TerraFlame fire bowl and S’mores Kit costs more, but it offers a more deluxe, authentic experience. Real crackling flames along with matching deluxe serving tray and roasting sticks give you a fancy restaurant-style evening that you can enjoy in the comfort of your own home.
