For those of you wondering what it is caterers use to dilute their
chocolate for the chocolate fountains, prepare to be GROSSED OUT! Most
caterers don't want to spend the money on good chocolate, so they will
use 4-6 CUPS of vegetable oil! Most of them will not use cocoa butter
because it is expensive...so they use the cheapest thing
possible...oil!

So if you don't want to be dipping your strawberry in vegetable oil, or
fake chocolate, here's a tip:

Most chocolates are too think to run in the fountain, and have to be
thinned with something. So if you have a choice, insist that they do
not use vegetable oil! A wonderful chocolate that is 100% pure and is
actually a special designed recipe for the chocolate fountain that
doesn't require any thinning or additions is Sephra Premium Fondue
Chocolate. They import their special fountain Fondue chocolate directly
from Belgium, and believe it or not it is very affordable. To find out
more about Sephra Premium Fondue Chocolate you can visit their website:

Does anyone know of another chocolate that doesn't need any thinning
agent to use in the fountain besides the Sephra Chocolate?
