The Chocolate Fountains lens is dedicated to oozing, liquid chocolate fondues for parties, events, and weddings. Melted chocolate is pumped up the inside of the fountains and flows steadily over the tiers. Chocolate fountains are an eye-popping feature at events, and the smell of warm chocolate fills the room. Popular food to dip into fountains include strawberries, marshmallows, biscuits and other fruit. A great party idea.

Why You Should Try A Chocolate Fountain 

  • The taste of warm melted chocolate
  • The smell of warm melted chocolate

  • They make an eye-catching display
  • They can be cheaper than a wedding cake
  • Chocolate makes you feel good
  • The photos of people at the fountain are priceless
  • Chocolate is an anti-oxidant
  • You'll be the talk of the town!

Things To Consider When Renting a Chocolate Fountain 

  1. Make sure the fountain is made only from hygenic stainless steel.
  2. Check to see if there are delivery fees for your area.
  3. Make sure that the supplier organises assembly of the fountain, set-up, insertion of the chocolate, maintenance, and clean-up after the event.
  4. Find out what kind of chocolate is being used in the fountain. Only couveture chocolate will melt and flow correctly. Otherwise, cooking oils are added which degrades the chocolate texture and consistency.
  5. Decide whether you want milk, dark, or white chocolate; or all three.
  6. Make sure you get the right sized fountain for your event; you don't want to run out of chocolate before the party finishes; or have to add more chocolate in a hurry - messy and distracting.
  7. Check to see if your supplier charges extra for having an operator in attendance or on call.
  8. Decide how long you want the fountain at your event; make sure you aren't caught short if your event goes longer than expected.
