Oh, the Exquisiteness of Chocolate!

Before I opened Elegantly Expressed and fell into the wedding planning and event design, I had dreams of being a caterer and owning a small restaurant. I even went so far as to cater special events for people I knew. My big break was catering the CD release party of this awesome singer I am lucky to know, Deb. (Go to her website and check out her awesome music!)

Anyway, soon after I started Elegantly Expressed, I was given the opportunity to invest in these magnificent chocolate fountains. I have two of them and they stand 23" tall. They are not quite the huge things you see at Hollywood parties, but they are cost affordable (as they use less chocolate) and perfect for the weddings that I do. I was surprised at how my inner caterer was brought out each time I used the fountains.



Many of you may be familiar with our luxurious chocolate fountains and the elegant but fun accents they add to events. While regular chocolate will always maintain its status as most popular, we have found surprising success with our crazy nacho cheese as well (I know, random, right? But people LOVE it!) However, if you know me at all, you know I am never satisfied with the same old stuff, so I have been scouring for new ideas and products to indulge in. Luckily I found some awesome solutions and I can't wait to try them out.



First up, the White Chocolate. I know it's not new, but no one has ever requested it before. However, our first white chocolate fountain is already scheduled to debut on May 14 at Mysha's exquisite wedding (seriously, this will be THE wedding of the year!).




Next, the Caramel. Over the past few years I have been researching how to do a caramel fountain, and I have finally found my answer! Someone please request this, as I am dying to try it!!



Finally, the Peanut Butter. In my dreams I never thought this was possible, but someone has created the perfect product to do it. Can you imagine how awesome it would be to have a chocolate fountain next to a peanut butter fountain?! Bring out the cookies, I am ready!
