What is a chocolate fountain used for?

Answer 1

The Chocolate Fountain is quite simple. There are three major parts: the Base, the Tiers, and the Auger.

The Base consists of the motor, heater, and controls. The heater keeps the chocolate melted while the motor turns the auger (see below for more info on the auger).

The Tiers are just that - Tiers that the Chocolate flows over.

The Auger looks a corkscrew. The Auger sets in the center of the tiers. The motor rotates the Auger and brings the melted Chocolate from the base of the Fountain to the top of the tiers. When the Chocolate reaches the top of the tier, the Chocolate overflows & cascades down over the tiers in a continuous stream of Chocolate and back into the base of the Fountain.

The Chocolate Fountain runs continuously at the event. The Chocolate level is simply monitored and additional Chocolate can be added so that the Chocolate flow runs uninterrupted.

Answer 2

To make a chocolate fountain recipe you will need chocolate chips in your choice of Milk Chocolate, Dark Chocolate, or semi sweet chocolate, unsweetened chocolate baking squares, and vegetable oil. For 48 ounces of Chocolate Chips, you will need six squares of unsweetened chocolate, and 1 1/2 cups vegetable oil. Combine everything in a double boiler and mix it well until everything is melted and incorporated.

Answer 3

Chocolate fountains are used for dipping fruits and other small pieces of food in. The fountain is transporting melted chocolate up the pipe in the middle, to then flow down the shafts of the fountain. It's not only beautiful to see, but also tastes great when you eat chocolate dipped food.
