La Maison Du Chocolat: Timeless Classics With a Twist

the front picture is slightly misleading, as majority of pics if not all are beautiful works of art but do not show well end product namely a cake or dessrt.I got used to and personally prefer to have clear and good quality photo to accompany each recipe, but in this case I will have to rely more on my imagination.So thats the con: no good pics to compare ur work with : ( and now pro:the book provides a good choice of fine desserts recipies, with clear instructions and tips which are easy to follow.I havent try yet but will soon for oncoming Christmas : )There are 6 sections1.Pure chocolate2.timeless classics: shortbreads, chocolate macaroons, chocolate cakes etc..3.playful uses for chocolate4Sprinkled with salt:braised veal with cocoa, scallops with cocoa nibs, roasted banana peppers.5.stunning creations:chocolatier handbags,melting chocolate chickens,saffron and chocolate jackstraws.6.practical information.I like small section called' a word from Gilles Marchal' were there he gives some useful tips and hints.There are overall around 40 recipies to choose from.

Lovely photos but there are clearly ingredients missing from the recipes.
