1. Does The Chocolate Fountain Use Real Chocolate?
Answer: Yes, we use a high quality Premium Ghirardelli Chocolate. This is done for two reasons: First and foremost - Taste is of utmost importance and we will not compromise quality. Secondly, the quality, consistency and flow of the chocolate will be much more appealing.
2. What type of chocolate do you use?
Answer: We are proud to serve Premium Ghirardelli Chocolate. It is available in Dark, White or Milk.
3. How Much Chocolate Do You Provide?
Answer: Our pricing includes 20 pounds of Premium Ghirardelli Chocolate. In most scenarios, this will be more than enough chocolate. However, for events that require more chocolate, we offer you the ability to purchase additional chocolate in 2.5 pound increments.
4. How Many People Will The Chocolate Fountain Serve?
Answer: Our package, which includes 20 pounds of chocolate, along with your accompaniments is normally adequate for events up to 250 guests. However, keep in mind that the Chocolate Fountain will serve an unlimited number of people by adding additional chocolate.
5. What Is The Size Of The Chocolate Fountain?
Answer: The Chocolate Fountain is 29" in height 16" in diameter and weighs approximately 75 pounds before adding chocolate.
6. Do I Have To Set Up, Tear Down & Clean Up The Chocolate Fountain?
Answer: Fortunately, we do all the work for you. We will arrive at your special event at least 60 minutes prior to the designated starting time. The fountain will then be carefully set up and the chocolate will be melted and flowing elegantly so your guests will smell the sweet aroma of chocolate when they begin to arrive. We then will clean up and dismantle the Chocolate Fountain when our time has ended. You will only have to enjoy your party!
7. How Long Can I Have The Chocolate Fountain At My Event?
Answer: Our package includes use of the Chocolate Fountain for 4 hours. This is usually plenty of time for most occasions where it is being used for the appetizer or dessert portion of the event. This does not include set up and tear down, which are done on our time. For occasions such as trade shows, conventions or other events where additional time is needed, you can request overtime at an additional cost.
8. What Are The Table & Electrical Requirements?
Answer: Since the Chocolate Fountain weighs approximately 100 pounds when full; a level, sturdy table is a must. If it is not level, the chocolate will not flow properly. Your banquet facility should provide two table linens that will coordinate with your color scheme. The Chocolate Fountain requires a 120 volt grounded electrical outlet within 10 feet of the set-up location.
9. What Accompaniments Can Be Used With The Chocolate Fountain?
Answer: The Chocolate Fountain will be the centerpiece of your table. Items, which can be dipped in the chocolate, should be placed closest to the fountain. Examples would be: strawberries, pineapple, marshmallows, pretzels, cookies, etc. Use your imagination! The items do not have to be expensive to be a crowd-pleaser! Please keep in mind that any crumbly-type food that may fall into the fountain will cause the chocolate to get lumpy and not flow properly.
10. Who Provides The Accompaniments?
Answer: We have found that many hotels and banquet facilities do not allow outside vendors to provide food items. They would be included with your package or an additional item for you to purchase through the banquet facility. If this is not the case, you may have already booked a caterer to provide your event with appetizers. We've found that over 90% of our bookings do not want us to provide the food. With that in mind, our package does not include the accompaniments. They can be provided by us though.
11. Do You Provide The Decorations For Around The Chocolate Fountain?
Answer: The Chocolate Fountain itself is the ultimate decoration for any table. The cascading chocolate along with the colorful array of fruit and other appetizers is plenty of decorations to make the table appealing. Of course you are more than welcome to provide any additional decorations if you so desire.
12. Can The Chocolate Fountain Be Used Outdoors?
Answer: We will only operate our Chocolate Fountain in enclosed areas. Because of the chocolate's sweet aroma, little flying creatures are very likely to be attracted to the fountain. Beyond that, maintaining the temperature of chocolate is critical for continued smooth operation. This would be difficult to accomplish in an outside setting.
13. What Area Do You Service?
Answer: Our pricing includes delivery and set up at any facility located in the greater Daytona Beach area. We will service other areas in Florida for an additional travel charge. Please call for more detailed information: 386-671-7866.
14. Do You Require Reservations & A Deposit?
Answer: Yes, we require a reservation, a signed contract and a $100.00 retainer at the time of booking. Reservations are limited and are on a first come first serve basis. The balance of your payment is due at least 14 days prior to the scheduled date of your event.
