Chocolate Fountain
Hire
What is a chocolate fountain?
A chocolate fountain is the modern day version of a chocolate
fondue, whereby chocolate is heated in the base of a machine,
pulled up through a central column and cascades, over a series
of tiers to create a fountain effect.
What is the
point of it?
Once the chocolate is flowing, it is continuous thus providing
guests with chocolate to dip in as much fruit and, food items
as they can. It is also a great centre piece left on its own.
Where would we
use it?
The Chocolate fountain is very popular at weddings and birthdays
along with corporate functions such as evening dinners, product
launches, conferences and promotions.
What type of chocolate is used?
The finest Belgium couverture chocolate. It is specially
formulated to cover whatever is put under it. We supply the most
popular flavours: milk, dark, hazelnut and white.
What can you dip
in it?
A range of fruits, marshmallows, biscuits and much more. One
needs to be careful of dips which may slide off the skewer and
into the fountain basin.
How long can we
hire it for?
Typically a normal hire is for 4 hours, however we always try to
work with you and your event timetable. The machine will keep
going as long as it has chocolate in it.
Do you insist on
an operator?
Yes.
We believe that it is very important to have an operator at the
function - cleaning up any mess, advising guests on the
correct way to enjoy the fountain, replenishment of the dips and
making sure the machine is running smoothly

of authentic casino equipment can be set up and with the
assistance of our croupiers, your guests will enjoy the
experience of winning (and losing) just like in a real Casino.

for real money.
Is Fun Casino's legal?
Yes they are legal.
Our Fun Casino conforms to the Lotteries and Amusement Act 1976
which allows this type of entertainment at functions such as
Weddings, Parties, Fund Raising Nights or functions that have
similar characteristics. They don't require a permit or licence
provided that the function abides by the following conditions:-
a) The Casino must not be the main inducement to attend. eg:
Wedding - guests turn up to see you get married not just for the
Casino !! b) Any proceeds from the Casino must be for private
gain c) The hire of the Casino must be for a fixed fee and not
dependent on the proceeds.
