Whether your planning a family gathering, a party or anniversary or simply getting friends together for a BBQ now the weather seems to be on our side, then why not add a bit of fun to the food offerings with the variety of fondue sets, chocolate fountains and drinks fountains available.

Putting together various food items for a BBQ or Buffet can be time consuming so for a great dessert while not try a chocolate fountain. I am constantly asked to ‘bring out the chocolate fountain!’. Just have it switched on and ready, and you can leave it going all night. You will be amazed how many time your guests (of all ages I might add) will visit your chocolate fountain. Little ones are fascinated by it and stand watching it. My sister borrowed my chocolate fountain recently for a kids birthday party and they loved it.

When using a chocolate fountain you need to use belguim chocolate and you need to add oil to it to make it more pliable, so make sure you read your instructions to the full before using it. Prepare loads of different fruits like strawberrys, raspberries, cherries, apricots, peaches, orange, melon etc. You can use marsh mellows, raisins, sponge cake its endless and supply loads of funky skewers for your guests to choose their fruit on, before dipping in the chocolate.

Also fondue sets are again making a comeback, serving a sauce with various nibbley bits like bread, cheese, meats, sausage etc and you can use a variety of sauces too from cheese, garlic, pepper, chilli  to BBQ sauce, the choice is yours.

And don’t forget your drinks fountain a real party center piece. Check out on my previous blogs for ideas of various punches etc to use with a drinks fountain.

So try some party dipping & fountaining, through out the up coming summers evenings to make your party go with a swing!
