A whole cook book on chocolate

by Alain Serres, ill. by Nathalie Novi
Childhood, chocolate and imagination: three ingredients that complement each other with pleasure in this large picture book, designed with warm colours. There are 40 recipes: sweet and salty, from the essential fondant and brownies to surprising innovations, such as litchis au gratin with bitter chocolate. Together with background information on the history and the culture of chocolate, each spread also includes an original short story to take us into the imaginative, delightful world of chocolate. Children will want to stick their fingers in it, but every chocolate lover, regardless of age, will want to savour it and return to it!
