This review is from: Simple Essentials Chocolate (Hardcover)

I LOVE all of my Donna Hay books. THey are jam packed with excellent information, as well as mostly simple, very trendy finishes. I purchased this 'chocolate book', in haste, and perhaps could have read more info on it, I'm not sure now, what was printed... but THIS is a very small hardcover, with what (I believe) recipes that are previously included in my other (larger, softcover) books. Still all excellent recipes, however, a disappointment, for me.

4.0 out of 5 stars A little book of delights, May 15, 2010

This review is from: Simple Essentials Chocolate (Hardcover)

This book does not disappoint. The recipes come out as delicious as depicted in the pictures. Simple and beautifully presented, this hardcover book is a gem. The recipes are easy to follow and great for beginners and intermediate bakers. The front pages go thru some basics and essentials of chocolate, and the various forms of chocolate available on the market.Excellent recipes for the different chocolate glazes, fillings and toppings are also in here. From there it moves on to the delectable munchies ranging from biscuits and cookies, brownies, small cakes, slices, regular cakes and desserts like puddings and mousses. All in all this book is YUMMY!!
