This review is from: Chocolate (Paperback)

This marvelous soft cover recipe book about chocolate by Trish Deseine with photographs by Marie-Pierre Morel will make your mouth water by just looking at the cover. When you open the book get ready to be tempted beyond your ability to say no. Recipes for Banoffee, Triple Chocolate Brownie Crunch, Emmanuelle's Chocolate Cake, Jean-Francois's Stuck Cake (the picture on the cover) and Butterfly Cupcakes will keep you busy. If none of those interest you then there are others that will.

Organized around units like Chocolate Tool Kit, Chocolate Nibbles, Classic Chocolate, Chocotherapy, Chocolate for Kids, Chic Chocolate, and Tricks of the Trade, Chocolate will make anyone an expert when cooking with chocolate. Chocolate would make a terrific Christmas gift.

A wonderful addition to any cooks library.
