Guest Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Help please! I have just come on here to find the recipe ideas that Cinnamon posted for a Chocolate Fountain party. I have been waiting about 6 months to do this and now, I can't find her thread about it! I did a search on fountain and apparently the word isn't used on the forum. Then I searched on chocolate fountain and it told me I wasn't allowed to do another search so soon! I have looked all through the All things nice section and still can't find it. Can anyone help me please? (I have sent Cinnamon a PM) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Thank you so much Emma. That is the one I thought I remembered! It has also just occurred to me that I could look in the box for a recipe, before I wrap it up! I bought the fountain (cheaply) in May, thinking I would give it to OH for our wedding anniversary. But then he suggested getting a breadmaker, which we did. So I have waited 6 months until his birthday! He still has no idea and will be thrilled with much drooling and dribbling! It will come in very useful for everyone's birthday too (6 of us!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theherd123 Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Glad i could help. The local shopping centre has a chocolate fountain stall and has lots of things to dip in it including; strawberries, small chunks of fudge, mini doughnuts, marshmallow, etc the list goes on & on!! Hope the birthday present goes down a storm - im sure it will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 pm'd you back It was fondue,not fountain.....no point doing a search for "chocolate" on this forum is there,there would be THOUSANDS of listings Anyhow,I think fountain choc is tinner,but I am not sure Lot of these sorts of tings on eBay - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2-5kg-Luxury-Belgian-Chocolate-for-Chocolate-Fountain_W0QQitemZ320043682552QQihZ011QQcategoryZ38174QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Read the instructions. I just need 1kg chocolate and some oil. Lovely suggestions for things to dip in! I've got marshmallows, pineapple, banana and mango. I hadn't thought of mini-doughnuts or fudge. Kaz's table looks fab doesn't it? I'll use candles too! MUST make that gorgeous gooey chocolate cake today as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowy Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 There was a chocolate fountain at a recent wedding I went too. They had chunks of cheese to dip - sounds yucky but was really tasty! Hm, cheese and chocolate, 2 of my favourite things.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hm, cheese and chocolate, 2 of my favourite things.... A few years ago I bought these amazing chocolates.They were dark chocolate,with a centre of real stilton & port.They were wonderful Just seen a Cocktail Fountain in a magazine,which is much more me than a chocolate fountain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cate in NZ Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 A cocktail fountain I could really enjoy one of those Sarah, how does it work.... loads of tequila sunrise or whatever cascading interminably through a fountain I suppose. I could definitely be tempted to keep refilling my glass at one of those Actually, you know, I'd be happy with a red wine fountain. Could we arrange one of those for the Jimmy's Farm bash do you think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 How about a Baileys fountain? that would be great for the Christmas season! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cate in NZ Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Very festive Ginette, I agree........ but what about our young Bailey's drinker, Martin We might have to barge our way past him to get to the front of the Bailey's fountain queue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 I'd be at the front already, Kate! I'll save you a place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Can I just check the venue? It's at Cinnamon's, right? Just setting off with my sleeping bag so that I'm first in the queue when she switches on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 Reporting back: OH was so thrilled with his present of a chocolate fountain. This should perhaps go in the 'things children say' thread: OH was jumping up and down on his chair with excitement, DS who is 8 observed this and then said 'Daddy, you're just like a child'! Quite an intelligent observation for an 8 year old I thought, but also very funny! (And OH is an usually sober, serious, quiet type. Not a 'lad' at all) It needs 1kg chocolate - I managed to buy fairly traded chocolate in the co-op which was only 2p per 100g more than the cadbury's stuff. I also bought some pink wafer biscuits and some shortbread fingers. I knew I just wouldn't have time or energy to cut up all the fruit as well as everything else. So as well as the biscuits I put out some dried apricots and some grapes. Although the fountain was a bit noisy, it went down very well. It will be an exciting feature of every birthday party from now on! And I have an easy quick-fix whenever OH isn't happy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
