What does a chocolate fountain do ?
Molten warm chocolate rises up through the middle of the fountain and flows down the outside in a series of widening chocolate curtains. Guests use a skewer to spear their chosen dipping food and place it under the curtain of chocolate. Your guests can now eat the chocolate-coated food bit and be totally overwhelmed by the wonderful taste.
What sort of chocolate do you use?
We only use the worlds best Imported Couverture chocolate in our chocolate fountains. Our chocolate is used and promoted in five star hotels and is available in many varieties, including favourites Milk, White, and Dark.
What dipping foods can be used with the fountain ?
This is purely a personal choice but the most popular dipping food is the luscious strawberry. Other suggestions are marshmallows, raspberries, cherries, pineapples or other exotic fruits of your choice, mini profiteroles, small solid cakes or slices. The fountain can also provide warm chocolate that can be ladled onto desserts such as ice cream, puddings or cakes.
Who provides the dipping foods ?
We can provide a complete range of dipping foods. If you have organised your event via a caterer or venue, we will happily co-ordinate with them. You can also provide your own dipping food and we will be happy to advise on suitable items.
How many people can the chocolate fountain cater for ?
As a general rule, the small fountain will cater for up to 70 guests and the medium/large fountain up to 750 guests.
Can the chocolate fountain be used outdoors ?
Unfortunately, the chocolate fountains are not suitable for outdoor use due to insects and the difficulty in controlling the temperature of the chocolate. However the chocolate fountain can be used inside a marquee if well insulated from the outside elements.
What is needed to hire a chocolate fountain ?
The most basic requirement is a sturdy table to cope with the weight of the fountain. Also you need access to a 240V power point to plug your chocolate fountain in.
Have you liability Insurance & Food Hygiene certification ?
