I remember when I laid eyes on the first chocolate fountain, my initial thought was, "Wow, that is the best thing ever!" Well, I still think chocolate fountains are the best thing ever! Maybe because I'm a chocolate-holic!


Even though chocolate fountains started off as a trend for weddings and special events, it is still running strong. What makes chocolate fountains such a great hit? For many, it is just a great way to entertain guests. Who doesn't enjoy dipping strawberries, pretzels and the favorite...marshmallows into a cascade of chocolate?


By definition, a chocolate fountain is a device used to serve chocolate fondue. Fountains range in size from 19" tall, up to 50" tall, structured in the shape of a stepped cone, ranging from two to five tiers. The bottom basin is heated, allowing the chocolate to maintain in a liquid state and flow freely. From the basin, the chocolate is pulled into a center cylinder that is vertically transported to the top of the fountain via a corkscrew auger. As the chocolate reaches the crown of the fountain, it flows over the tiers, creating a chocolate waterfall.



A Day To Remember offers chocolate fountains in three different sizes...Mini, Medium and Large and in a variety of flavors, from white chocolate, milk or dark chocolate, and caramel! Be sure to give us a call for additional information!
