PREPARING YOUR CHOCOLATE
NOTE:
The Rival

Chocolate Fountain will not run properly without the
addition of the oil.
The chocolate can be melted with a double boiler or in the microwave.
To melt the chocolate in a double boiler, add 2 inches of water to the
lower pan. Heat the lower pan on the medium heat setting of your
range to simmer. You want the water to simmer, not boil. Place the
upper pan of the double boiler over the lower pan and add the
chocolate and the vegetable oil. As the chocolate begins to melt, stir the
chocolate mixture frequently to avoid overheating and burning. The
chocolate should avoid direct contact with the steam and the water as
the moisture will cause the chocolate to become unusable.
To melt the chocolate in the microwave, place the chocolate and oil in
a microwave safe bowl. Heat the mixture on a medium setting. Heating

Chocolate Fountain is very simple to use and will provide hours
of entertainment turning any occasion into an event!
You MUST mix oil (vegetable or canola) with the chocolate. The oil allows
the chocolate to reach the smooth consistency for an even flow through
the Chocolate Fountain. Please follow the table below for chocolate-to-oil
ratios.
