How to Host a Chocolate Fountain Tea Party for Mother’s Day

Holidays like Mother's Day are perfect for chocolate fountain rental businesses. Offer a special Mother's Day chocolate fountain tea party option to your clients or advertise this special in advance. It's not only a great idea and likely to appeal to many mothers and daughters, but could become a tradition for many, which translates into repeat business for you.

Decorative Display

A Mother's Day tea party is the perfect event to complement a chocolate fountain. After you have a head count, set up round tables that will hold a beautiful centerpiece of fresh flowers over a feminine tablecloth. Tea parties are usually elegant affairs, but discuss a color scheme that would be appropriate, whether you choose pastel colors for the linens and muted whites and light pinks for the floral arrangements, or choose a bolder color scheme like rose pink and light green for a modern twist on the traditional tea party.

Decide whether each table will be served tea or whether each person will be presented with a small tea pot filled with hot water and a selection of teas. If you plan to offer finger sandwiches before moving on to the chocolate fountain, you might consider serving each table decorative tiered plates of items like cucumber sandwiches and mini-quiches. Then, after these are consumed, invite the ladies to form a line for the chocolate fountain while their tea is replenished (if necessary).

Delicious Dipping Treats

Whatever color scheme you choose for the tables, whether it's pastel or bold hues, continue this in your chocolate fountain display. No matter the color scheme, dipping treats should range from fresh fruit to baked goods and confections. Peaches, strawberries, cherries, and bananas are all beautiful in an arrangement and pair exceptionally well with Sephra's chocolate for chocolate fountains. Mini cheesecakes, sugar cookies, lady fingers, and meringues are all especially relevant for a tea party and also taste fabulous dipped in chocolate. Sephra's pink marshmallows are also a big hit and will complement any tea party.

Mother's Day Marketing Tips

You could approach a local venue like a hotel, offering your chocolate fountain rental for a Mother's Day tea, or market to women's organizations who might want to hold a Mother's Day tea for their members. Daughters are always looking for a new way to treat their mothers to a special day, and this year it could very well be a chocolate fountain tea party, hosted by or in conjunction with your chocolate rental business.
