INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the 3-TIER CHOCOLATE FONDUE FOUNTAIN. This chocolatefountain creates a cascade of sweetness that will add mouth-watering fun to any occasion. Your friends and family will enjoy snacks, appetizers and desserts with the 3-TIER CHOCOLATE FONDUE FOUNTAIN. Please take care of your machine by following these simple instructions. You can use a variety of chocolates and sauces with your 3-TIER CHOCOLATE FONDUE FOUNTAIN to create the flavor you desire. Try the following:

Milk Chocolate
Dark Semi-Sweet Chocolate
White Chocolate
Butterscotch

Dip strawberries, marshmallows, apple wedges, pretzels, cookies, ice cream balls, peanut butter balls – use your imagination! Add liqueurs for sophisticated flavors.

You can also melt cheese to create a cheese fondue fountain. Dip grapes, apples, breads, shrimp, crackers, and pretzels – use your imagination! In order to use cheese, you just need to prepare the cheese as you would for a regular fondue pot by diluting it with white wine or cream to keep it liquid, enabling it to flow through the tower. Powdered cheese may be used as well.

Barbeque sauces may also be used. Try your favorite barbeque sauce and dip cooked chicken cubes, beef/steak cubes, pork cubes or shrimp. Keep in mind the consistency of the sauce needs to be thin. Use wine, liquor or other liquids to thin the sauce.

PARTS & ASSEMBLY

Your CHOCOLATE FONDUE FOUNTAIN requires little assembly. Prior to use, wipe out Bowl with a damp cloth and dry. Wash Auger and Tower in warm soapy water, rinse, then dry.

After cleaning, return Auger to Base. Make sure Auger is securely in place by aligning the opening on the bottom of the Auger with the Base Pin. Do not attempt to place Auger or Tower on Base or remove from Base while the motor is running. Make sure the Tower is fitted on the posts in the Base properly.

SWITCH POSITIONSLeft: Heat Motor / Right: Heat / Center: OFF

HOW TO OPERATE

First, find a stable surface near an electrical outlet before starting. Unit must be level to operate properly and to create the desired flowing effect. Make sure your cord is away from any water source. If needed, it is acceptable to use an extension cord.
Turn the switch to the right to start the HEAT function on the CHOCOLATE FONDUEFOUNTAIN. Let the unit warm up for at least 3 to 5 minutes before adding melted chocolate.
While the machine is warming up, get a microwaveable bowl. Fill bowl with two bags of chocolate chips (24 ounces) and ¾ of a cup of oil. If you are using Belgian Chocolate, you do not need to add oil.
Place in microwave for 2½ minutes. When done, stir chocolate. If necessary, continue to warm chocolate in microwave until melting is complete (another 2 to 2½ minutes). DO NOT heat chocolate over 110o F as warping of the towers may occur.
Never add cool or cold liquids to the melted chocolate in the fountain as this will stop the flow.
Chocolate needs to be completely melted and of thin consistency to allow proper flow. Use a large spoon to test the consistency of the chocolate. If the chocolate drips too thickly from the spoon, add more oil to the mixture.
Once the chocolate is completely melted and of proper consistency, turn the switch the the left on the CHOCOLATE FONDUE FOUNTAIN to the MOTORHEAT position, so the motor and the heater are running at the same time.
Carefully pour the melted chocolate into the Bowl at the base of the Tower. The melted chocolate should be drawn under the Tower and carried up the Tower by the Auger. Chocolate should then begin to flow from the top of the Tower and cascade evenly down each tier.
The CHOCOLATE FONDUE FOUNTAIN must be level to ensure proper sheeting of the chocolate. Be careful not to drop pieces of food into the Bowl which clogs the flow of chocolate.

HELPFUL TIPS

If chocolate begins to drip instead of flow down the Tower, the chocolate is too thick. Thin the chocolate by adding vegetable oil. Also, make sure that the unit is level.
If the chocolate is flowing unevenly, the unit is not level. Make sure that the unit is on a level surface so that the chocolate is evenly distributed.
If the flow is intermittent, interrupted or not flowing properly, check to see if there are chunks of food in the Bowl of the Base that may be clogging the chocolate flow.
Never add cool or cold liquid to the CHOCOLATE FONDUE FOUNTAIN as this will stop the flow of the fountain.
DO NOT heat chocolate over 110o F as warping of the towers may occur.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

To prolong the life of your CHOCOLATE FONDUE FOUNTAIN be sure to follow cleaning instructions after every use. Never use anything abrasive on the base to maintain the original finish.

Make sure unit is unplugged before cleaning. Allow parts to COOL to the touch. Tower, Auger, and Base can get VERY HOT!
Before first use and continuing after each use, be sure to wash the Towerand Auger thoroughly. AVOID washing parts in the dishwasher.
To make cleaning of the CHOCOLATE FONDUE FOUNTAIN easier, carefully remove the Tower and Auger (after cooling) and wipe off remaining chocolate with paper towels. Wash in warm, soapy water, rinse and dry.
Carefully pour out as much remaining chocolate from the Bowl as possible. Use non-abrasive, damp sponge or cloth to wipe clean the rest of the unit. Then, wipe with a non-abrasive towel to dry.

DO NOT POUR OUT EXCESS OR LEFTOVER CHOCOLATE DOWN ANY DRAIN. POUR INTO A PLASTIC BAG OR DISPOSABLE CONTAINER THEN PUT INTO THE GARBAGE.

RECIPES

For best results, chocolate should contain 60% cocoa. Any higher percentage of cocoa will require the addition of vegetable oil to thin out the mixture.

DO NOT ADD ANY COLD LIQUIDS TO FOUNTAIN DURING OPERATION.This will cause your mixture to thicken and not flow properly.

Enhance the flavor of your chocolate using liqueurs.Try these delectable chocolate creations:

Orange Chocolate:Orange Liqueur or Orange Concentrate

Chocolate Hazelnut:Hazelnut Liqueur

Coffee Chocolate:Amaretto

Mint Chocolate:Crème de Menthe

Chocolate Macaroon:Crème de Coconut

Chocolate Liqueur:Any Brand of Chocolate Liqueur

To burn the alcohol off of the liqueur:

Prior to mixing the liqueur with the chocolate, measure ¼ cup of liqueur (more or less depending on taste) and pour into a small cooking pot.
Cook the liqueur on the stove top and bringing to a boil.
Mix the liqueur with choice of chocolate before adding to The CHOCOLATE FONDUE FOUNTAIN.
