All About Chocolate: The Ultimate Resource for the World's Favorite Food

I bought this for my husband - a definate "chocoholic". It is a great book and the pictures make your mouth water. It tells you so much interesting information about chocolate. If you love chocolate, you will enjoy this book - even if you can't eat the book.

Great, Lots of Information

Wow, all my Internet research seems to be right here in one book! Thanks!

good reading

I read my friend's copy of this book. Covers history of chocolate, chocolate around the world, locations of chocolate festivals and events in the USA, explains the different kinds of chocolate, chocolate terms (like bloom, tempering, etc...), chocolate recipes, and even shows listings on the web of where you can find chocolate information. I think it's an interesting book for this sort of general information

Complete and compelling.

Carole Bloom knows all about chocolate and is willing to share it. A compendium of fact and highly educated opinion about the world of chocolate. Dependable and indispensable. It even includes a chapter on other books about chocolate, including fiction, which is the only thing this book is not. In that realm, Bloom and I recommend BITTERSWEET JOURNEY, A Modestly Erotic Novel of Love, Longing & Chocolate.
