How a Chocolate Fountain works
Most of our Chocolate
Fountains are made of three parts. There's a base unit containing the heater and
motor, a spiral drive and a tier system.
You prepare the chocolate separately by melting it in a microwave or on the hob
over a low heat. You then pour it into the bowl in the base unit. The spiral
drive draws the warm chocolate up to the top of the tier system - and then the
enticing cascade starts to flow over the tiers with its irresistible warm
chocolate aroma. It pours back into the bowl and then starts its journey all
over again.
Once the chocolate is in full flow, everyone can start
to dip the food of their choice - anything from exotic fruits and profiteroles
to marshmallows and biscuits. And remember the Fountain works equally well with
sauces other than chocolate, including savoury ones. For something completely
different try a warm fruit coulis or a cheese, barbecue or sweet chilli sauce.
How to set up and use one of our Table Fountains
Fit the spiral drive to the
centre of the base bowl. Make sure it’s firmly locked in position. Slip the tier
system over the spiral drive and lock it in position. Add the melted chocolate
to the base unit.
