The World’s Largest Chocolate Fountain

Whilst we’re very proud to be one of the only companies to operate true 5-tier Sephra fountains, even we pause to admire The Bellagio’s masterpiece. Found in the Spa Tower of the famous casino and hotel in Las Vegas Nevada, is the largest chocolate fountain in the world.

Protected from tempted fingers by glass panes, three streams of dark chocolate cascade from level to level; alongside two flowing milk chocolate streams and a single white current. Whilst the chocolate makes every observer gape like schoolchildren, the mechanics are a sight to behold. Almost a tonne of chocolate is heated to 120 degrees to create this confectionary wonder, flowing through double walled pipes which are heated with oil to keep the chocolate melted. By the time the chocolate completes its cycle, it has passed through more than 500ft of stainless steel pipes. What’s more, the fountain never stops flowing and rises to almost 30ft in the air.

Jean-Philippe Maury is the creator of this masterpiece, which could be something straight out of a fairy tale; something too good for Willy Wonka’s factory.

Our only complaint?

Strictly no dipping allowed!

Whilst we can’t quite compete with 500ft of fountain, La Fontaine de Chocolat offer a fantastic range of Sephra fountains; along with our authentic Belgian Waffle station and luxurious Ferrero Rocher Pyramid.
