The CF1500 holds up to 5kg of chocolate for dramatic, flowing effects without frequent refills but can also operate with minimum of 3kg, reducing potential waste. Its simple tier positioning and detachable bowl also insures the CF1500 is exceptionally easy to use. The CF1500 is made of three parts - a base unit containing the heater and motor, a spiral drive and a tier system.

You prepare the chocolate separately by melting it in a microwave or on the hob over a low heat. You then pour it into the bowl in the base unit. The spiral drive draws the warm chocolate up to the top of the tier system - and then the enticing cascade starts to flow over the tiers with its irresistible warm chocolate aroma. It pours back into the bowl and then starts its journey all over again. Once the chocolate is in full flow, everyone can start to dip the food of their choice - anything from exotic fruits and profiteroles to marshmallows and biscuits. And remember the Fountain works equally well with sauces other than chocolate, including savoury ones.

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 firm biscuit
• Profiteroles

Dipping ideas for other sauces -
For another sweet idea, try filling the Fountain with a fruit coulis that you’ve warmed gently in the microwave or on the hob. Then offer a menu of the dips listed above

For a completely different Fountain eating experience, take a cheese, barbecue or sweet chilli sauce of a thin consistency that you’ve warmed up. Then offer your guests -
• Cooked cubes of pork, beef, chicken, firm fish or prawn
• The same foods in a light batter, Chinese or tempura-style
• Cooked cubes of vegetables
• A variety of breads – plain or flavoured
