Chocolate Measurements and
Melting Tips
Recommended quantities for the chocolate
fountain are as follows:
750g chocolate melts and ¾ cup canola oil.
We recommend using good quality chocolate
melts. Other chocolates that are high in
cocoa solids work well also.
Note:
Chocolate varies in quality; the
recommended oil quantities may need to be
adjusted to make the chocolate flow correctly.
Canola oil quantities can vary from 100ml to
225ml.
Microwave melting method
Note:
Please allow for extra chocolate top ups
if using with lots of people.
Combine chocolate and oil in a heat proof
bowl. Heat in microwave on medium/low for 3
minutes. Stir chocolate mixture and heat for
a further 1 minute. Repeat, until chocolate
mixture has completely melted and is smooth
and warm.
Note:
DO NOT overheat chocolate. This will
cause the chocolate to seize and harden. If
this occurs chocolate must be thrown away.
Stove top melting method
Combine chocolate and oil in a heat proof
bowl. Place bowl over a saucepan of
simmering water.
Note:
Water should not touch base of bowl.
Stir chocolate and oil until chocolate mixture
has completely melted and is smooth and
warm.
