Your Salted Caramel Fountain is ready for you and your guests to enjoy.

A GUIDE TO INGREDIENTS

Prepare a fantastic selection of dipping foods for you and your guests to dip into the fountain. Some of our favourites include:

Marshmallows
Fruits such as Strawberries, Cherries & Sliced Banana
Joe & Seph’s Mushroom Popped Kernels (drizzle over popcorn and mix in a bowl)
Doughnuts (mini or large)
Waffles
Cupcakes
Ice-cream (drizzle over a cone or bowl of ice-cream)

HINTS AND TIPS

Foods you should NOT dip into the fountain:

Foods that crumble easily such as biscuits, as they may clog up the Chocolate + Caramel Fountain.
Wet fruits or fruit fibre, as any liquid will cause the chocolate or caramel sauce to seize and slow or stop the flow.
Take care not to dip fingers into the fountain as this contaminates the sauce for other users.
Use a soup spoon to serve your sauce into a bowl. Its depth will allow a good amount of sauce to cover your treat of choice.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

QUESTION: The Chocolate + Caramel Fountain is fully assembled. Why is nothing happening when I press the power on/off switch?
ANSWER:
Check that the appliance is plugged in and switched on at the socket. If you have added melted chocolate and it is not flowing, check that you have turned the switch to HEAT MOTOR.
QUESTION: Why is the Chocolate + Caramel Fountain not flowing smoothly and evenly?
ANSWER:
Adjust the Chocolate + Caramel Fountain to ensure it is completely level by twisting the adjustable feet at the bottom of the base unit. This will ensure that the chocolate/caramel flows evenly. An unbalanced Chocolate + Caramel Fountain will not flow smoothly.
QUESTION: I’ve heated the Joe & Seph’s Salted Caramel Fountain Sauce in the microwave and levelled the fountain on a flat surface, but the Caramel Sauce is still not flowing evenly?
ANSWER:
Heating the Joe & Seph’s Salted Caramel Sauce for more than 30 seconds in an 800W or more powered microwave will cause the sauce to thin and not flow correctly up the sauce lifting spiral. Joe & Seph’s Fountain Salted Caramel Sauce is made ready to use, so all you need to do is open the bottle, and pour the sauce into the fountain sauce bowl. We recommend not microwaving the Joe & Seph’s Fountain Salted Caramel Sauce before adding it to the fountain.

CARE AND CLEANING

Turn the switch on your Chocolate + Caramel Fountain to the OFF position, switch off at the socket and unplug the Chocolate + Caramel Fountain before cleaning.
Clean your Chocolate + Caramel Fountain whilst the Chocolate or caramel is still in LIQUID form while warm; if you leave the chocolate or caramel to cool it will thicken and make the cleaning process more difficult.
Use warm water and soap to clean the appliance thoroughly before first use and after use thereafter.
Check the parts for wear or damage after every few uses.
Empty the fountain sauce bowl by disposing any remaining chocolate or caramel into a bin liner or a throwaway container.
NEVER pour liquid chocolate or caramel down a sink as it may harden and cause a blockage.
Remove the central tier column and spiral from the base unit. Gently wipe them with a soft, damp cloth or sponge and place them in a sink.
Next, thoroughly wash the central tier column and spiral in warm, soapy water, rinse and dry.
Wipe any remaining chocolate or caramel sauce from the sauce bowl with a soft, damp cloth and use a paper towel to buff it dry.
NEVER immerse the Chocolate + Caramel Fountain base unit in water or any other liquid.
DO NOT use abrasive cleaners or steel wool.
Store the Chocolate + Caramel Fountain in a dry place, with the power cable loosely coiled. Never wrap it tightly around the product.
