This book has over 25 ideas for making lollipops, cakes, brownies and big celebration cakes all out of chocolate. Despite its size there’s an awful lot of information in this book, making it suitable for beginners who’ve never worked with chocolate before. My favourite chapter has to be the last one, titled ‘more excuses’ which is exactly how I feel when I bake yet another chocolate cake. Sometimes the girl just can’t get enough.
The recipes themselves didn’t inspire me hugely, however used as a book for interesting ideas it’s a great addition to your bookshelf; it’s very visual. I will definitely be making the Stars of Wonder for Christmas; little chocolate bites topped off with milk chocolate and white choc stars. I might even share them with the boys.
