Best Electric Chocolate Fondue Machines

There are two types of electric chocolate fondue machines: chocolate fondue pots and chocolate fondue fountains.

Electric chocolate fondue pots are ideal for small gatherings, for example, a dinner table with 6 or 8 guests. With an electric chocolate fondue pot, you don't have to either microwave or double-boil the ingredients. Simply fill the pot with ingredients, place it on the table and turn the power button on.. Just make sure you placed the pot on the center of the table so that each guest can dip their fruit, cake or marshmallow in the mixture.

When it comes to large parties, whether indoor or outdoor, chocolate fondue pots might not be a good option. Instead, for such parties, electric chocolate fondue fountains are an excellent option. Because chocolate fondue fountains have become quite popular, they're manufactured in home versions and provide you with the pleasure to dunk into the chocolate waterfalls anytime you wish to do so.

The way chocolate fondue fountains work is slightly different from the way chocolate fondue pots work: microwave or double-boil the chocolate as well as add some oil before pouring the mixture into the fondue fountain is required.
