Chocolate Fondue & Chocolate Fountains

Chocolate fondue fountains are devices used to serve chocolate fondue at parties and special events like weddings, birthdays, bar mitzvahs, wedding receptions, special anniversaries, corporate events, sweet 16 parties, and so on.  Chocolate fondue fountains are an interactive centerpiece that allows party-goers to dip food items into flowing tiers of decadent chocolate. A typical chocolate fondue fountain is around 2 to 4 feet tall and looks like a multi-tired chocolate wedding cake when operating.

Fondue was initially introduced as a French Swiss communal dish. Fondue is defined as a dish which is kept in a liquid state so that diners can dip food items using a fork or skewer. Chocolate fondue fountains have taken food dipping to a new dimension.

Chocolate fondue is a chocolate dish that is kept in a liquid state to dip an assortment of food items into for an entertaining and interactive eating experience. Chocolate fondue fountains are used to attract customers to exhibition booths and to entertain guests at parties and often make a long-lasting impression.

Chocolate fondue fountains can be categorized as either personal chocolate fountains or commercial chocolate fountains. Commercial chocolate fountains are made up of stainless steel and found in ranges of 25” to 52” in height. Most of these fountains hold 10 to 35 pounds of chocolate. Home chocolate fountains are typically made of plastic and contain 2-4 pounds of chocolate.

Many fondue fountains are not capable of melting chocolate directly in the fountain base so chocolate must be melted first in microwave or double boiler. DR™ chocolate fondue fountains can melt chocolate directly in the base of the fountain which is very helpful for venues that do not have a microwave or stove top available. Chocolate with high cocoa butter content is recommended for a decadent taste and texture and for a beautiful flow over the fountain tiers.

Melted chocolate is transported to the top of the fountain by a pump or corkscrew auger.  Commercial chocolate fondue fountains move chocolate to the top of the fountain with an auger.  Pump driven models can clog so are not preferred in commercial applications. The DR™ chocolate fountains set the standard in auger design with a heavy duty, precision made design.

If you are a caterer or establishment with banquet facilities, let a commercial chocolate fondue fountain pay for itself and increase your revenue.
