Items related to Chocolate: A Sweet Indulgence
Finally, chocolate gets the lavish treatment it deserves. In the sophisticated style that distinguished its best-selling predecessors, Espresso and Champagne, Chocolate is a richly illustrated celebration of life's most seductive treat. Whether you prefer the simple comfort of Hershey's cocoa or a decadent dark chocolate souffle you will delight in this delicious volume. Over twenty recipes for luscious confections and surprising savories, including warm chocolate risotto and white chocolate lime tart, are paired with evocative images to create a gorgeous feast for the eyes. A history of chocolate and how it is made, complete with anecdotal facts such as how the Tootsie Roll was named; literary excerpts from the work of M.F.K. Fisher, Roald Dahl, and others; and a clever glossary make Chocolate an elegant and unique homage to "the food of the gods."

Review:
This richly illustrated gift book is a celebration of one of life's most seductive taste treats. Fancy Food -- Fancy Food, June 1997 Just as mouthwatering as the gift of chocolate itself is the new book, Chocolate, A Sweet Indulgence, by Karl Petzke and Sara Slavin. This richly illustrated gift book is a celebration of one of life's most seductive taste treats. More than a dozen recipes for luscious confections and surprising savories -- from warm chocolate risotto to white chocolate-lime tart -- combine with evocative photos to create a feast for the eyes. A whimsical timeline of chocolate history and events, poetry, literary excerpts and an extensive glossary make Chocolate a perfect gift item. Chronicle Books
