Chocolate Fountains Are Getting Lots of Attention

I have noticed the phone has been ringing quite often lately with inquiries about renting chocolate fountains for all kinds of events here in the Atlanta, GA area. I get more requests than I can handle for some dates. Anyway, I thought it was an interesting observation because you hear all these people and the media complaining about the economy, but if you sell chocolate you might be doing okay.

I Found Out Why You Don't Use a Chocolate Fountain Outdoors!

I knew you weren't supposed to use a chocolate fountain outdoors. There are several things that just don't mix with a chocolate fountain.

• Bugs
• Temperature
• Wind
• Rain

You probably already get the point right? Well I had a client hire me without specifically telling me I was supposed to set it up outdoors. I thought for sure I would be inside. I got there and they took me all through the building to then take me outside and show me the table. I stopped just inside the door and asked them if they were sure. When I explained to them why we don't use it outside, they insisted. Honestly I wanted to give them their money back and pack it all back up and leave, but they still insisted....

So even though I didn't want to do it, I gave in and set up outdoors. I got the chocolate melted, then I turned on the fountain. I wasn't sure how much wind was too much. Before I even got it running, the smallest little gust of wind came along and took the chocolate across the white table cloth and onto the bricks below and later I found out it even made it to the dipping items on the table too. I quickly jumped out of the way so I wouldn't be covered in chocolate all night long.

Because it was already getting cold out, I quickly cleaned off the tier set and got it put away before everyone came out for the dessert hour and live entertainment. I did explain to them the chocolate in the basin would stay melted and most of the issues we had to worry about were out of the way except for the rain that came later and then it was time for me to leave.

Trust me, I will never allow that to happen again. A lesson well learned. Now ALL clients no matter who they are, will be filling out my form and agreeing to the terms and conditions. Once they read it, I would hope they realize that those provisions are there for a reason.

Ari's Bar Mitzvah Chocolate Fountain

Ari had a few wishes for his bar mitzvah and one of them was to have a chocolate fountain. I was proud to help make that wish come true. I think his friends and family were also very glad he decided to have a chocolate fountain for his bar mitzvah too.

Willy Wonka Party

Theme parties are the rage this year and this school had fun with their theme for their prom…….Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory……you know the old story has been revived with the new movie that recently came out.

They recreated the chocolate river and candy land….and to top it off they planned to have their own flowing river of real chocolate…….well at least the equivalent to it……a double dose of our chocolate fountain brimming with real melted Belgian chocolate.

They opted for milk chocolate in the large fountain and white chocolate in the medium fountain. The organizer for the party commented that out of all the years she has helped with the prom, this was the most she has ever seen anyone eat from any of “buffets”.

Another chaperone commented that this was the third prom she has been to this year and that our chocolate was the best she has tasted from the fountains that were at all of the proms.

There also was chocolate on every table as decorations, Wonka bars galore scattered about and very cute centerpieces that were all covered in mini candy bars. Too cute!

We have another prom coming up in a few weeks that is also using our Atlanta-based DJ service in addition to our chocolate fountain….so there will be more to follow.

For those people who just love chocolate fountains, we came up with a brilliant position for them with our company "Chocolate Fountain Inspector", well sort of, at least they can play along.

Super Sweet 16 Party

Talk about Sweet 16…..this is just about as sweet as it gets. This beautiful birthday girl planned a party for over 200 guests and treated them to a chocolate fountain overflowing with Callebaut Belgian milk chocolate for her Sweet Sixteen birthday party in Thomaston, Georgia.

Young and old enjoyed the chocolate fountain. I think the youngest was about 2 years old.

The fountain was a big hit and some of the kids were really sad to see me cleaning up to go. There was plenty of spicy food, so many cooled their palates while enjoying the chocolate fountain.

So even though it was a very rainy Saturday, this Sweet 16 Party made everyone forget about the bad weather outside as family and friends gathered to celebrate and rejoice for this special event.
