Abstract
A fountain apparatus for use with a flowable food media includes a recipient for receiving the food media therein, a recipient and an output port. The recipient is heatable within a predetermined temperature range for maintaining the food media within the temperature range. The output port connects to the recipient downstream of an aperture extending through a wall thereof and has a passageway extending there through for receiving the food media from the aperture. The passageway defines an inlet opening that is in fluid communication with the recipient via the aperture and an outlet opening that has an opening mechanism to selectively control the opening thereof. A heating member is thermally connected to the output port for warming up the same to maintain the food media therein within the temperature range.
