Assembling The Chocolate Fountain
The unit is easy to assemble.
After unpacking for the rst time, wipe out the bowl with a damp paper towel or cloth.
1. Rinse the tier system and spiral drive in warm water and dry.
2. Attach the spiral drive to the base unit by inserting the triangular hole at the bottom of
the spiral drive into the driveshaft. Make sure it’s rmly locked in position.
3. Attach the tier system to the base unit by aligning the 3 holes around the bottom of
the tier system with the 3 pins in the bowl. Lock it rmly in position.
Operation
Place the unit on a at and stable surface within reach of a mains socket. The unit must be
completely level to work properly.
Preparing the chocolate
Now it’s time to get the chocolate ready. It needs to be melted before you place it in the
warmed fountain bowl. The quickest and simplest way to do this is in a microwave but you
can also melt the chocolate on a hob. For the best cascading eect, you need at least 800g
of chocolate and ideally 900g of chocolate to start. This is a generous serving for up to 6
people.
Use chocolate that has a maximum of 60% cocoa. If a chocolate with a higher cocoa
percentage is used the chocolate may require the addition of some vegetable oil to
improve its flowing quality.
Microwave
First, break the chocolate into pieces and place 600g of chocolate chips / pieces and 100ml
of vegetable oil in a microwave-safe container and place it in the microwave oven. Heat it
for 1-2 minutes on high power (100%) and then stir. Return it to the microwave for a further
20-30 seconds if neccessary and then check again. The chocolate must be completely
melted and of a thin consistency that ows easily o a spoon.
If desired, other liquids such as liqueurs may now be added (approximately 1/4 cup of
liqueur, depending on your taste.)
Milk chocolate, dark semi-sweet chocolate, or white chocolate may also be used.

Hob
Place the chocolate in a heat-resistant bowl. Stand the bowl in a large saucepan of hot
water on the hob over a low heat. Stir the chocolate constantly until it’s completely melted,
taking care not to let it stick or burn.
Again, you’ll need to add some vegetable oil. It’s important not to add water or any waterbased liquids to the chocolate as this will make it harden and stop the ow.
Adding the chocolate to the chocolate fountain
Connect the unit to the mains socket. Turn the power switch to the ”Heat “ position to
preheat the bowl for 3-5 minutes.
Let the unit warm up for at least 3 minutes before adding the melted chocolate.
Turn the power switch to the “Heat & Flow“ position. Get the choice of dipping foods ready.
Carefully pour the melted chocolate into the fountain bowl. Do not overll the fountain
bowl, leave at least 1/4 inch of space from the top of the fountain bowl.
Do not overfill the bowl.
The spiral drive inside will draw the chocolate up to the top and then the enticing cascade
will start to ow over the tiers with its irresistible warm chocolate aroma. Then start
dipping!
• To prevent clogging, do not drop food pieces or objects into the chocolate. Also, do
not add cold liquids to the chocolate mixture or it may thicken and prevent proper
fountain operation.
• If chocolate ow becomes inconsistent, turn the power switch to “Heat” position
and allow a few seconds for the chocolate to settle, then turn the power switch
back to “Heat & Flow” position.

Some Dipping Ideas To Inspire You
The chocolate fountain is great for parties or events. Chocolate is sure to be a big favourite
as a dipping sauce – but you can also ll the unit with other sweet sauces and savoury
sauces. Here are some ideas to get you thinking.
Dipping ideas for chocolate
• Marshmallows and pieces of Turkish delight, fudge and honeycomb.
• Whole fruits – such as strawberries and cherries.
• Sliced fruits – such as mango, kiwi fruit and orange segments.
• Biscuits – such as amaretti or a similar rm biscuit.
• Proteroles.
Dipping ideas for other sauces
For another sweet idea, try lling the unit with a fruit coulis that you’ve warmed gently in
the microwave or on the hob.
For a completely dierent fountain eating experience, take a cheese, barbecue or sweet
chilli sauce of a thin consistency that you’ve warmed up. Then dip with these:
• Cooked cubes of pork, beef, chicken, rm sh or prawns.
• The same foods in a light batter, Chinese or tempura - style.
• Cooked cubes of vegetables.
• A variety of breads – plain or avoured.
The bowl will be hot, use oven mitts or other hand protection to help prevent a
burn hazard.

Using Dierent Chocolates In The Chocolate Fountain
Virtually any quality chocolate will work well but for perfect results the rst time and every
time, you’re recommended to use a specially blended fondue chocolate.
To get the best cascading eects, the secret is a chocolate with a high percentage of cocoa
solids. Dark chocolate usually has a higher percentage than milk chocolate. Other cheaper
chocolates can work with the addition of vegetable oil but the oil can obviously aect the
taste and the texture.
Important – please note!
• Microwave timings are based on heating the chocolate on a Medium setting in a
800W microwave oven. If the oven has a dierent wattage, please check with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
• Chocolate burns easily so keep an eye on it and don’t heat it for more than 2 minutes at
a time.
• If you’re melting the chocolate on a hob, follow the instructions on page 5-6.

How To Clean And Care For The Chocolate Fountain
The unit is designed to be easy to use and clean. Always switch o the unit and unplug it
before cleaning.
Turn o and unplug the unit. Start by pouring away any remaining liquid chocolate from
the bowl. It’s important to put it into a plastic bag or another disposable container and then
place in a bin. Never pour the chocolate into a drain or the toilet. It could cause blockages
as it hardens.
Wipe o any remaining chocolate in the bowl and on the sides of the base unit with a damp
paper towel or soft cleaning cloth and bu dry. Don’t use abrasive sponges or scourers as
these will damage the surface.
The base unit contains the electrical components and so it must obviously never be placed
in water or in a dishwasher. The spiral drive and the tier system can be safely washed by
hand in warm, soapy water. Then rinse and dry with a paper towel or soft cloth.
• To prevent an electrical shock hazard, do not immerse the base in water or other
liquids, as the base contains the electrical components.
• Do not use steel wool pads or other abrasive cleaners to clean the product, never
spray or apply cleaners directly to the unit.
• To prolong the product’s life, follow the cleaning instructions after every use.
• Never store the chocolate fountain in a fridge. It will damage the unit and the
condensation will cause an electrical slock hazard.
