Chocolate fountain hire for events

There are two pieces: the fountain on top and the base cart that holds it and displays the dippers. We take care of everything:

• Delivery, set-up and collection.
• Chocolate for the hours booked.
• Dippers: strawberries, banana, peach, marshmallows and sponge cake.
• Staff to look after the fountain and your guests.
• Serving ware.

You can also hire it without staff. In that case we ask for a deposit, refunded in full if the fountain comes back working, undamaged and clean.

The chocolate melts in a heated bowl that keeps it at a steady temperature. A pump in the base lifts it to the top, and from there it flows down each tier of the tower to form the cascade.

Guests pick fruit, marshmallows or sponge and dip it straight into the chocolate. The fountain runs non-stop throughout the service, so it becomes a meeting point for the whole celebration.

It is a hands-on treat: people come over, try combinations and take photos. Children and adults love it equally.

The service includes strawberries, banana, peach, marshmallows and sponge cake. The fountain works with plenty of other dippers too:

• Fresh fruit: kiwi, apple or whatever is in season.
• Something crunchy: vanilla or chocolate biscuits, pretzels.
• Something soft: sponge cake, pancakes or waffles.

If you want to swap or add dippers, tell us when you ask for a quote. The chocolate contains milk and may contain soya and traces of nuts. The full allergen sheet is available.

We can brand the fountain cart on its lower or upper front with your logo, your product name or the couple's names. It is the first thing people see as they walk up and it shows in every photo.

We can also look at other touches, such as a sign with your message or napkins with your logo, depending on quantities and lead times. More ideas on our branded food carts page.

For branding we need at least two working weeks to produce and fit the graphics.

• Weddings and celebrations, as a dessert station or at the drinks reception. See wedding food carts.
• Corporate events, galas and dinners. See corporate event food carts.
• Product launches and openings, where visual impact matters. See brand activation food carts.
• Trade shows, conferences and shopping centres.
• Christmas parties, alongside hot chocolate.

• Power: a standard 220 V socket within 2 metres.
• Space: the cart, an area for the dippers and a metre clear in front.
• Access: an easy route from the unloading area.

Set-up takes 45 minutes to an hour if the van can park nearby, as the fountain needs 15 to 30 minutes for the chocolate to reach temperature. We test everything before the start.
