Chocolate Fountain Company
FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the chocolate get to the top of the fountain?
It is propelled upwards by an innovative stainless steel corkscrew. The chocolate in turn cascades down the fountain and then gathers at the base whereupon it is pushed upwards again.

How does the chocolate stick to the foods dipped in?
We use a special type of Belgian chocolate known as 'couverture', which means 'covering' in French. In other words the chocolate is specially made to coat anything and everything you dip into the fountain.

Where would you use a chocolate fountain?
Weddings, parties, birthdays, anniversaries, corporate launches and occasions, Christmas parties, sporting events or anywhere else you have a group of people both young and old getting together who love chocolate.

How reliable is your machine?
Many of the chocolate fountains available in the UK today were imported from the US, which could make them less reliable as America uses a different electricity voltage system to us. Our fountains were manufactured in the UK and are the only fountains currently available meeting British food grade standards. As a result our machine has a 100% reliability record.

How long can a fountain run for?
It can run indefinitely as the fountain keeps the chocolate at a constant temperature. The only thing we need to do is keep topping up the chocolate.
