On Saturday the Chocolate Fountain Hire Team travelled to Salisbury Guild Hall for a Christmas Party for The Emergency Department. The Hall was lavishly decorated in burgundy and gold and the guests were treated to a full night of canapés, dancing and of course our stunning display of Chocolate Fountain. The local doctors and nurses enjoyed a variety of naughty dips including fudge, marshmallows and brownies and some slightly healthier choices like strawberries mango and melon. In between delicious Belgian chocolate bites the guests had the change to gamble on the casino or take advantage of the very entertaining photo booth, including various different costumes!! Beautifully dressed in balls gowns and tuxedos being carefully not to drip the chocolate, the guests danced into the early hours with a live band and DJ.

Birthday Party gathering at Regents Park Barracks
At Chocolate Fountain Hire we like all sorts of events, but our favourite ones are family gatherings, and recently we were invited to provide a milk chocolate fountain for a 50th birthday party celebration that was also a pre Christmas family and friends gathering. Our booking took us to the Officers Mess at the Regents Park Barracks in London. Upon arrival we set up the chocolate fountain in the lounge area in time to have the chocolate fountain ready for when the party guests arrived. The room was decorated in true Christmas style complete with a large Christmas tree and presents, and the guests were served canapes and drinks before their main meal. The chocolate fountain was intended to be the dessert, however some of the guests had some before the meal, all in the interest of quality control of course! With the end of the meal, guests were eager to test the chocolate fountain. I am sure some guests actually ran for the fountain! We provided a selection of dipping items that included meringues, mini doughnuts, cream profiteroles, marshmallows, strawberries and mango. By far the favourite item at the party were cream profiteroles. When dipped into the chocolate fountain the warm of the chocolate combining with the cold of the cream is a really nice taste. Speeches and cutting of the birthday cake signalled the end of the party and in no time at all it was time to pack up and leave London for a few days at least!
Lights Dim on chocolate fountain and fruit palm tree at army party
Recently chocolate fountain hire were asked to provide a large chocolate fountain and fruit palm tree for an army mess function Christmas party. We made the trip to Aldershot in hampshire allowing plenty of time to make the fruit palm tree and set up the fountain. When we arrived the guest were eating their starters so we set up the fountain then began to make the fruit palm tree. This was made more interesting by the power cut however this didnt deter us, whilst the guests ate their starters by candle light we made the fruit palm tree also by candle light! Eventually power was restored and guests soon made their way to the chocolate fountain, which was provided with a vast array of dipping items and also the fruit palm tree which looked very fetching with its palm leaves swaying as guests removed the fresh fruit that we had prepared. The fruit from the palm tree can either be eaten from its cocktail stick or dipped into the chocolate fountain and eaten with a lovely coating of Belgium chocolate.

Saturday morning and the team went to Lewisham to provide a Chocolate Fountain for an Achievement Awards ceremony. The ceremony was in a lovely hall that had been decorated with blue and gold balloons and fibre optic decorations. The food was provided by a Carabbean caterer and was delicious. The chocolate fountain was set up next to the bar, and was an immediate success! As guests were queuing up for their lunch, they were helping themselves to warm luxurious chocolate coated strawberries, donuts and Christmas shaped gingerbread. The young people were handed their awards by various dignitaries, and we had lots of good entertainment from dancers and rappers, and right at the end we were treated to singer J Sol who was ace! he sang some of his own songs and covered various other songs as well. During the ceremony we had two breaks and the Cocolate Fontain team were overrun with the guests wanting to fill up with jelly babies, fresh mango, pineapple and marshmallows, which were a definite favourite!

Happy Feet Get Dancing at Ice Party
The Chocolate Fountain team was thrilled to be asked to provide a large white chocolate fountain for the premiere of Happy Feet 2. We were very excited as a Happy Feet is a firm favourite with our kids (not to mention us!) We arrived at the Grand Connaught Rooms to discover it had been transformed into a beautiful white, icy wonderland. The flooring had been turned white, there were igloos and icebergs and snowballs everywhere. There was a ‘pick a penguin’ pond, learn to dance like Mumbles, build your own ice cream sundae, balloon modelling, create your own penguin shaped biscuit, not to mention mulled wine and canapés for the grown-ups, and of course, the centerpiece, the beautiful White ChocolateFfountain. It looked stunning situated right in the middle of the room. The dips, marshmallows, strawberries, brownies, grapes, melon, mango, profiteroles and donuts all looked luscious and inviting on their white square china bowls and plates. The guests, kids and adults alike went wild for the chocolate and we were kept very busy for the duration of the party topping up the dips and chocolate and helping everybody to dip the good things into the gorgeous chocolate! We had a couple of stars at the fountain including Robin Williams who was the voice of Ramon and Lovelace and the Charlie Brooks who plays Janine Butcher in the soap Eastenders. But the biggest stars there were Mumbles and Erik who appeared in person (or penguin!!) . It was a brilliant party and at 2.30pm when everyone departed to go and watch the film we were left tired but very happy to meet the stars of Happy Feet 2
