Tripple chocolate to see in the new year
New Year’s Eve and the Chocolate Fountain Hire Team travelled to the picturesque village of New Milton in the New Forest for a party to see in 2012! A beautiful marquee was the setting for an amazing party. The guests were treated to a fantastic meal of Salmon or Steak with an amazing assortment of freshly prepared roasted vegetables and rice dishes. Our stunning 5 tier chocolate fountain was the dessert for this occasion and was filled with luxurious Belgian White chocolate and was complimented by 2 smaller chocolate fountains, one with milk chocolate and the other with dark chocolate. The guests enjoyed a huge variety of dips including gingerbread , profiteroles and the favourite of all our fresh strawberries, the hardest choice though was which type of chocolate to dip them into!!
There was a joint celebration as one of the guests had their birthday that day and his main choice of celebration for his 72nd birthday was to indulge in the 2012 shaped vodka ice luge. The live band played throughout the evening and the guests danced their way into 2012 with champagne and good friends!

No False starts at Worcester race course fo sudents chocolate fountain
One of the last parties before christmas involved us heading upto worcester to provide a chocolate fountain for a student christmas ball. We arrived in plenty of time and set up the chocolate fountain. In no time at all the chocolate fountain was flowing with belgium milk chocolate with a selection of dips including strawberries, banana, donuts, profiteroles, brownies, marshmallows. It didnt take the party goers too long to take advantage of the chocolate fountain. We always bring extra dips for these kind of events as we know how hungy students can be, and we didnt take too many home with us( the students of worcester are a hungry lot and love their chocolate).

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.
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
