SWEETENING THE DEAL:
KICK THAT CHOCOLATE FOUNTAIN TO THE CURB WITH THESE SUPER SWEET ALTERNATIVES!



Don't let the name fool you -- Double Chocolate Fountain is not just about, well, chocolate fountains. Of course, this company prides itself on the ability to have 2 different types of chocolate cascading down elegantly styled tiers in a variety of colours. But that's not what caught This Planner's eye. It was the uber adorable alternatives to the fountain that this company provides that made her do a little happy skip.

That said, This Planner thought she'd share some sweet alternatives to the ho-hum tradition of candy buffets and chocolate fountains (because let's face it, a chocolate fountain regardless of looks or flavours is still...yup, a chocolate fountain).



SWEET BBQ STATION

Ok, how sweet is this twist on the traditional BBQ? With mini "sweet" sliders made of chocolate ganache sandwiched between sweet buns and fries sculpted from bite-sized funnel cakes and mexican donuts (otherwise known as churro), how could you go wrong? Toss in some toppings like carmel "mustard" sauce or strawberry "ketchup" sauce and you've successfully provided a sensory twist for your guests!

S'MORES STATION

Alright, so S'mores stations at weddings and events aren't exactly cutting edge. They've actually been around for a while but gosh darn it! They are so fun! With this no-campfire-needed station, guests can build that classic graham cracker, chocolate and melted marshmallow goodness on their own or with the assistance of Double Chocolate Fountain.

HOT CHOCOLATE STATION

Know what goes well with a 'sweet table'? Sweet beverages! Using an amazing variety of flavours from Milk Chocolate, Mint and Caramel to Banana, Mocha and Peanut Butter, this station recreates the traditional hot chocolate chocolatini style complete with a wide array of toppings including cookie crumbles, whipped cream and mini peanut butter cups.

FUDGE PUPPY STATION

Hot Belgian waffles coated in your choice of chocolate or caramel, topped just the way you like and served on a stick? Oh heck yes! Whether it's white chocolate, milk chocolate or caramel and whether you like sprinkles, whipped cream or cookie bits, these Belgian beauties which are made right on the spot will definitely make for a sweet interactive treat for your guests.

APPLE STATIONS

Candy apples set at each place setting as a Favour? Soooo yesterday! Creating customized candy apples on-site? Sweeeet.

Whether your guests like their apples coated with candy or with caramel, this interactive station will bring out the kid in all of them. Apples are dipped in the coating of your guests' choice then sprinkled with a vast range of toppings from assorted candies to chocolate chips.

Of course, chocolate fountains are still considered classic edible-entertainment by many...as classic as candy buffets , but if you want to give guests an experience that's different from the hum-drum, these creatively sweet interactive stations will not only let out your guests' inner children but will give new meaning to the term "eye-candy" while doing it!
