A chocolate fountain is essentially a stainless steel device that serves fondue of melted chocolate. A motor at the base of the fountain is used for heating the prepared chocolate chunks that are placed on a heating tray. A central corkscrew pushes the molten chocolate through a column. Upon reaching the top of the source, which can be 2-4 feet tall and has multiple levels, the chocolate flows down. The chocolate flows in a tray, and discharges to the next until it reaches the lower level. After the cascade chocolate reaches the base of the fountain, the whole process repeats again. The first melting chocolate can also be carried out in a microwave or water bath. The source is placed on a base that is sturdy enough to support around 40 kilograms of weight and is near a power outlet.

Chocolate high in butter cocoa, chocolate and coverage, is ideal for use in the sources. Chocolate can be milk or dark. Chocolate low in cocoa butter must be supplemented with vegetable oil, however, this hampers the smoothness and flavor of chocolate.

Chocolate fountains are available in the home and commercial versions that can be used for a variety occasions, parties, film premieres, bar mitzvahs, and product launches. A home fountain is ideal for a gathering of around 25 people.

Chocolate sources are available for hire catering companies and party goods stores. They also provide an attendant who ensures that the source works correctly, the cascade of chocolate with no problems and there is no abuse of power in the hands of anxious children. Suggestions such as fruit pieces, cheesecakes, chocolates, etc, are kept around the fountain. These can be skewered on to toothpicks and dipped in the fountain. In general, anything that is not susceptible to collapse will be good for dipping in a chocolate fountain.

Chocolate fountains can be rented at an hourly rate that includes fees for services and the attendant cost of chocolate used. Usually, chocolate fountains are operated for no more than two hours during a match are functioning normally when we serve snacks and desserts. It can also be an additional item in a buffet. Installation of a chocolate fountain in the outdoors is not recommended as insects get drawn by the aroma of chocolate and breeze may disrupt the flow.
