does this melt the chocolate

no this item does not melt the chocolate. I had to google the recipe for chocolate fondue. It is tollhouse morsels and vegetable oil to keep it liquid...

No. It does not. The chocolate/oil mixture should be melted in the microwave and then placed in the fountain. It keeps melted until you turn it off.

Nope, i was under the impression it would when i bought it. You have to melt the chocolate in the microwave. The heating element in this machine cant even keep the chocolate melted...id go with a much more expensive one that is geared more toward commercial use. I hate this thing!

It does but can take a while. I used the chocolate that already had the oil in it and nuked it in the microwave for 1.5 minutes just to speed up the process. Overall it's a really good machine.

I have melted chocolate in mine directly. What I found that worked was to use PAM spray in the fondue pot first. It doesn't need a lot, just a little so that it doesn't melt and burn. If you are in a hurry, then go ahead and pre-melt it. I also put a little cream, or whatever liquid you want to melt with it, and it worked fine. I have been a fondue lover for many years, and am on my third fondue pot! Good luck and enjoy your chocolate!

I only used Wilton candy melts and I didn't have a problem. It did take a little more time for the white and colored melts to melt than the chocolate ones. They also seem to set a little faster.

Hi Gary, you still have to heat the Chocolate in the microwave to soften it, it stays warm enough to keep the fountain flowing I had it running for about 3 hours with no issues. I was very pleased with the product.

you add water with the chocolate mix,.. I use milk,. regular or 2%. Its a great little machine. Its mixes and heats the content to a perfect temperature automatically and shuts off.

Definitely! My chocolate stayed put, but even if it went out a little, you could break it off once it was chilled and unmolded.

Nope it doesn't. I think however they do have a chocolate flavor version of it!

No, it will actually melt the bottle. I tried this and ruinef one myself. You have to heat the milk and then pour it in the liner.

i have one and I don't think so. Actually my husband accidentally cooked some garlic bread in it with a bowl of chocolates left over from Halloween ontop... they didn't melt, weren't hot.

It keeps it melted, melt it first in the microwave per the directions. It's a great little machine. Just make sure and clean it out really well when you're done so the chocolate doesn't harden and ruin it. Great buy, love this little machine. I used it for my parents wedding vow renewal and everyone really enjoyed it.

Hi! I don't believe that is does... Many recipes for it call for mixing it with milk and the Nutrition Fact ingredients listed are peanuts, sugar, salt and cocoa powder for the chocolate. Hope that helps!

Yes! I used it with candy melts and was able to do a lovely job the very first time I used this mold!!!

Yes! It does make hot chocolate and there are 2 different recipes in the booklet you get - regular hot chocolate and orange white hot chocolate.

I used it to make both chocolate and poured sugar lollies, but the poured sugar does cloud the plastic (but not distort it). I made the poured sugar first and then the chocolate ones. Both turned out fine. You should fill to the VERY top though, because the stick placement is kind of high in the back of the lolly.

It works best if the chocolate is cold, cut in smaller pieces. Pulse until you reach the consistency you need.

Not sure. We always use the full amount, and reuse the chocolate that is left over. Just store it in an airtight container and don't refrigerate.

Yes.. it mixes and tastes good even with water. . Although it's even better in milk. This is really delicious though even in water. . Get the chocolate fudge flavor
