_ FAQ’s
_How does it work?
At the heart of the fountain is a rotating auger (corkscrew) that gently lifts the molten chocolate from the base to the height of the fountain. It then cascades over the tiers back into the base for visual effect and your enjoyment.
What can I dip in the chocolate?
Please see our dips page for a list. We like to avoid crumbling foods, such as cake and biscuits because they can spoil the visual effect. They disrupted the smooth flow of the chocolate but, because it’s your day, we'll provide what you request.
