This review is from: Chocolate: A Book of Recipes (Little Recipe Book) (Hardcover)

Chocolate, with its mouth watering texture and rich creaminess, is one of the most pleasurable eating experiences and is enjoyed in numerous sweet desserts and cake recipes. This charming books is a collection of some of the most irresistible ones.

The temptations begin with a glorious selection of indulgent recipes, including cheesecake, roulade, fabulously rich truffles and spectacular cakes. There are creamy chocolate pies accented by nuts, berries and coffee flavors and light-as-air chocolate choux pastries. For tea-time treates, there are sinfully sweet fudge brownies, chewy cookies and elegant florentines. Heavenly hot desserts include a classic souffle, peaches stuffed with amaretti, and a baked nutty pudding. Finally, there are lucious cold desserts such as creamy mousses, ice cream and a sophisticated chocolate marquise.

Each recipe is photographed in all its chocolaty pslendor and there are beautiful illustrations throughout In addition, there is a comprehensive guide to all the types of chocolate, cook's tips and step by step techniques for handling and cooking chocolate and making decorations. For those who cannot resist the allure of chocolate, this book is heaven sent.
