Questions & Answers:

Do I have to set up, take down and clean the Chocolate

Fountain?

 

At AAA Chocolate Fountains , we do all the work for you,

so you can relax and enjoy your special event.  Included

with all of our Fountain Rentals is an on-site fountain

attendant, who will set up the fountain, serve your guests,

and ensure that everything runs smoothly with your event

and the fountain.

 

How long can I have the Chocolate Fountain at my event?

 

Included with all of our Fountain Rentals is Three (3) hours

of enjoyment of the Chocolate Fountain.  This is more than

enough time for most events; however, if you would like

us to stay longer, we can always add additional time on an

as-needed basis.

 

What dipping items can be used with the Fountain?

 

Some of our most popular dipping items include Straw-

berries, Bananas, Marshmallows, Pretzels, Pound Cake,

Butter Cookies, Dried Fruit...the possibilities are endless!

See our "Order Form" for the full list.

 

Who provides the dipping items?

 

Many clients don't want the extra worry of having to  bring

their own dipping items.  Because of this,  AAA Chocolate

Fountains can provide the Chocolate Fountain as well as

the dipping items.  You simply tell us which dipping items

you'd like to have and we'll bring them.   Also, we always

bring more than enough, so you never have to worry about

running out of a particular dipping item.  However, if you

would like to provide your own dipping items, that is fine

too.  And we will always take care of creating a beautiful

display regardless of who provides the dipping items.

 

What are the table and electrical requirements for the Chocolate Fountain?

 

Since the Chocolate Fountains with chocolate and Food

Dipping Items weigh almost 130 pounds when full, a level,

sturdy table is a must. If it is not level, the chocolate will

not flow properly. Your event location should provide two

table linens that will coordinate with your color scheme.

We will also bring our table cloths.  The Chocolate Fountain

requires a 120 volt grounded electrical outlet 

(a three-pronged plug) within 15 feet of the set-up location.

What areas does AAA Chocolate Fountains service?

AAA Chocolate Fountains provides fountains for events

almost anywhere in Utah, southern Idaho, and southwest

Wyoming. 

 

Can the Chocolate Fountain be used outdoors?

 

You can with some precautions.  (1) the outside

temperature has to be warm (because the chocolate

has to flow properly).  The rule of thumb is - if people

do not have to wear sweaters, the temperature is okay; 

(2) no wind can reach the fountain (because chocolate

can lose its even flow and can splatter on people); (3)

no critters can reach it (as they are drawn by the

incredible aroma).   If  you have a way to enclose the

fountain, that will work better.

 

Are reservations and a deposit required?

 

Yes, we require a reservation, a signed contract and a

$100 deposit 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.

 

Can I use the chocolate fountain in place of the wedding cake?

 

Many brides nationwide are choosing to move away from

the norm - they are replacing their wedding cakes with

chocolate fountains.  Their guests have not been disapointed!

 

Is chocolate nutritious? 

 

The facts are laid out by the American Dietetic Association

and National Center for Nutrition & Dietetics:

 

   1)  Chocolate contains oleic acid, which is beneficial to

heart health.  Oleic acid, a nonnsaturated fat also found in

olive oil - the healthiest of all oils - makes up 1/3 of the fat

in chocolate.  True, it has some saturated fats, but not all

types of saturated fats raise blood cholesterol levels. 

Stearic acid, which makes up 1/3 of the fat in chocolate,

does not raise blood cholesterol levels. That leaves 1/3

of the fat in chocolate that does; but overall, the fat in

chocolate is still much safer than the fat in most other

treats.   Putting things in perspective, chocolate contributes

LESS than 2% of the fat in the average American diet.  The

main sources of fat are meat, dairy, and fried foods.

   2)  Does chocolate have antioxidents to improve health?

   It contains antioxidants called polyphenols, which are

being studied for their potential health benefits.  Chocolate

comes from the "Theobroma cacao" tree, and thus has

many of the same healthy compounds of other plants,

including copper, zinc, iron, and magnesium.

   3)  Why is chocolate safer to use than some other treats

for our dental health?  Chocolate clears the mouth fairly

quickly, reducing the time it spends in contact with the teeth.

Does it cause cavities?  No, cavities are caused by carbo-

hydrates mixed with bacteria, which creates acid in the mouth.  Chocolate, which contains carbohydrates, is no more or less

responsible for cavities than any other carbohyrates - like

bread, raisins, crackers, and fruit.

   4)  Is it true chocolate has very little caffine?  Yes!   An 8 oz.

cup of hot cocoa contains only 6 mg of caffine.   The same

amount of cola beverages contain 25 to 31 mg of caffine, while

the same amount of coffee contains 87 to 200 mg.      

  5) The greatest benefit of chocolate, of course, is the taste.

The exciting smells and sight of a chocolate fountain at your

event, coupled with our remarkable recipe, will leave your

guests talking about your event for months!  


We'll create a splash of paradise for you.  Imagine cascading chocolate gliding over fresh fruit, pastries, pretzels and angel food cakes!
