The Great Book of Chocolate: The book every chocophile has been waiting for, pastry chef David Lebovitz’s guide is a jam-packed snapshot of the global chocolate picture. In this compact volume, he gives a succinct cacao botany lesson, explains the process of chocolate making, runs through chocolate terminology and types, presents information on health benefits, offers an evaluating and buying primer, profiles the world’s top chocolate makers and chocolatiers (with a whole chapter dedicated to Paris alone!), and shares dozens of little-known factoids in sidebars throughout the book. It includes more than 30 of his favorite chocolate recipes. |

I have David's "Room for Dessert" book and it's great. It has over 100 dessert recipes and they are easy to do. I love the ginger cake. |
