Chocolate Fountain Hire (Greater Brisbane and Gold Coast region)

We offer chocolate fountain hires in the greater Brisbane and northern Gold Coast areas, or further for those collecting equipment themselves.

Chocolate fountains are a fantastic feature of any event. Here marshmallows, strawberries, grapes, cherries, bananas, pineapple, macadamia nuts, licorice, waffles, wafers or other favoured, non-crumbling finger foods are speared on long, thin wooden skewers and happily dipped into the flowing chocolate, delighting everyone involved. We can supply everything except for the fruits or foods used. The fountain can also provide warm chocolate that can be ladled onto treats such as ice cream, puddings or cakes.

Chocolate fountains add a unique charm to the day, radiating a real “Wow!” factor. An increasingly popular practice is to use the cascading chocolate as a replacement for – or an adjunct to – the dessert in meal packages offered by reception centres. Please note the fountains need to be used either indoors or in an enclosed marquee. Wind and direct sun can otherwise affect the smooth texture of the flowing chocolate.

Another interesting feature of the fountain is the delicious chocolate scent that emanates from it. In an enclosed hall, this gradually permeates the entire area around it, greatly enhancing the unique charm of your event. Often we hear words from clients to the effect of

“I’ve forgotten just about everything that happened on the night, but I’ll never forget the adorable aroma from the chocolate fountain!”

FOUNTAIN DETAILS

Note: Whatever fountain is chosen, should the chocolate within it slowly begin to be depleted as the event unfolds, extra can simply be added to it, if you wish.

The above prices are if you collect the fountain yourself from our base at Slacks Creek (near Logan Ikea). Pickups can occur any day from the Wednesday before the party onwards for the same price, with returns being made on either the Sunday or the Monday following the event.

Additional information is as follows:

DELIVERY COSTS: If you wish us to deliver and then recollect the equipment for you, please add $100 for Brisbane southside; $120 for Ipswich or Brisbane northside (we don’t deliver to the Gold Coast, you will need to collect the equipment yourself).

Please note the fountains are easy to set up, no special skills are required. Full written instructions are given with every hire.
Regarding finger foods, the cheapest option is for you to provide your own supplies for the fountain, whatever you want. For example, marshmallows can be purchased directly from Coles, Woolies or any sweets store (to find such places in your area, simply do a Google search for “Confectionery warehouse” to find the closest one to you). Other recommended foods are fruits in season such as strawberries, cherries, grapes or bananas; licorice; soft lollies; dried apricots; etc. It’s really only limited by your imagination. Hmm, for the adventurous adults out there, I wonder what chocolate covered cheese would taste like?
Chocolate prices: Around $40 to $45 per kg for our high quality Callebout chocolate, depending upon market prices that fluctuate from season to season. Please note you’re more than welcome to supply your own chocolate, there’s no need to buy from us. Any nice tasting chocolate that you like is fine. Note each kg typically caters for around 25 to 30 people. Should there be any unused at the end of the night, simply pour it into plastic containers such as ice cube trays and freeze it at your home for delicious desserts later on. It’ll store for months in the freezer.
Cleaning of the fountain is easily done while the chocolate is still soft by carrying it to a sink and washing the chocolate away under warm running water, using paper towels. It takes around five minutes. Or use a dishwasher, placing the disassembled components inside, Please note our fountains are readily disassembled into their component pieces in mere seconds, making the job easy.

“Forget love – I’d rather fall for chocolate!”

“There is nothing better than a friend – especially a friend with chocolate!”

“If I eat equal amounts of dark chocolate and white chocolate, is that a balanced diet?”
