The Chocolate Fountain: More Than Just Dessert

Some people would say chocolate makes the world go round. Or at least it makes life more pleasurable while the world goes round, right? Whenever there is chocolate, great memories are sure to follow. Chocolate can bring fun to any situation and smiles to all who partake of it. Chocolates make great gifts for others, for any occasion, and make a fantastic self-indulgent reward for you. Whatever the event or need, you can’t go wrong with chocolate. Gifts of chocolate can be part of special and meaningful events as well, like fun children’s birthday treats or as chocolate wedding favors for her big day. So, if chocolate makes great gifts, imagine layers upon layers of delectable melted chocolate flowing non-stop, into which you can dip almost any kind of fruit or sweet treat. Sounds like a dream come true for chocolate lovers. That’s exactly what a chocolate fountain is.

Chocolate fountains pump delicious melted chocolate up through their center, over the top, where it falls in captivating, cascading layers of warm decadence.

You can easily melt chocolates in a microwave before pouring into the fountain. For better consistency, vegetable oil can be added to the mixture as well. With the chocolate fountain as the centerpiece of your buffet, place varied assortments of food items around the table for guests to dip into the flowing chocolate. You can offer pretzels, biscuits, marshmallows, and bite-size breads to tame their sweet tooth, while small pieces of refreshing fruits such as apple, banana, kiwi, or strawberry serve as tasty, healthier options.

A chocolate fountain makes a great centerpiece for your buffet table. The colorful fruits and other dipping options create an inviting display that oozes hours of fun for everyone. When your guests gather around the chocolate fountain, they not only warm up to the desserts being offered, but it’s great way for them to warm up to each other, as the fountain becomes a great conversation piece.

You can’t go wrong with a chocolate fountain. It’s a decorative item, a chocolate lover’s dream, a conversation starter, a buffet table centerpiece, a wide array of endless dessert choices, and just simply great-tasting chocolate. You can easily rent or purchase chocolate fountains. They come in all sizes and styles to fit any purpose. They are easy to maintain and generally easy to operate. One taste and you’ll never throw a party or host a celebration without one at its center!
