| Does an operator have to be at the event or can we just hire the machine? |
| An operator is usually part of the package when hiring a chocolate fountain, and this is extremely beneficial as they are there to help your event run smoothly by refilling dips, assisting guests and ensuring that the fountain continues to run smoothly. Some companies do offer "Machine Only Hire" but this is not recommended |

| What type of chocolate is used? |
The chocolate used is specific to each hire company but is usually a luxurious chocolate which helps to ensure a smooth flow. It is not always suitable for guests with nut allergies. Also, make sure it is suitable for vegetarians if required to make sure the chocolate used is gluten free.
White Chocolate Fountains, Dark Chocolate Fountains and Milk Chocolate Fountains are the most popular options. Alcoholic Chocolate Fountains are also available from some companies.
