Chocolate Fondue Fountains - Heaven On A Stick
Chocolate Fondue Fountains (For Virgins)
A chocolate fondue fountain can turn a simple dessert into something that is visually orgasmic. ♥ Perfect to end a romantic Valentine's Day dinner (and start the after dinner festivities if you know what I mean!)
Normally when people talk about fondue they talk about the pot sitting over a small burner where dinner or party guests can dip chunks of bread into a melted cheese dish. It's considered, well, awesome!
Basically, anything you can melt you can make into fondue. For a dessert, chocolate is the perfect option. The added dimension of having a fountain instead of a pot makes the whole thing that much more appealing to the eye. People will want to have some just because it's irresistable.

A cascading waterfall of chocolate... it's almost like you're in the Wonka Chocolate Factory of dreams!
1. Wilton Chocolate Pro Fountain
Most people recommend the Wilton fountain for first timers for its ease of use. It has 3 tiers that come apart for easy cleaning. It is a quiet machine, with three adjustable feet and a bubble level. Almost everyone that has this machine recommend using the Wilton brand chocolate melts as well (see below for link) - I haven't had them yet but apparently they are "that good"!

Perfect For Valentine's Day ♥
2. Nostalgia Stainless Steel Chocolate Fondue Fountain
The Nostalgia chocolate fondue fountain is similar to the Wilton, but out of the two I would recommend the Wilton product. It's base isn't as adjustable so you will have to make sure your table is level. The tower and auger are plastic so they are dishwasher safe.
3. Total Chef Stainless Steel Chocolate Fountain
The Total Chef chocolate fountain can hold 2 pounds of chocolate. Other brands sometimes require up to 5 pounds. It has a thermostat and safety fuse. This is a durable product and good for the price. It makes the necessary magic for small parties.
4. Rival Chocolate Fondue Fountain
The Rival chocolate fondue fountain also holds 2 pounds of melted chocolate but it also comes with 8 fondue skewers and a serving tray. Its parts can go in the dishwasher and come with a year's warranty. I just can't get over how good it looks! For me, presentation determines whether I just sample... or indulge!
5. Total Chef Chocolate Fountain Double Tower
A ha! Two in one! The Total Chef double tower, 2 tier fountain shows that you really can have the best of both worlds! However the stainless steel bowl only holds about 650ml or 22oz of melted chocolate for each tower basin. Buyers have said this works well, but is a little bit noisier than some of the other chocolate fondue fountains.
