Description

From the world’s finest chocolatier, who originated the “bean-to-bar” concept, comes this choice of 170 recipes for the perfect and most crucial chocolate confections.
 
Belgium’s foremost practitioner of the art of fine chocolate making shares his passion and his knowledge in this extravagantly beautiful volume. Pierre Marcolini’s confections have been acclaimed as the world’s most delectable chocolate creations, and his book is a delicious immersion into the world of fine chocolate and a tribute to its majesty.
 
Marcolini used to be the first chocolatier to create his chocolates in line with a bean-to-bar philosophy— an idea born from the realization that just as the finest wines reflect the “terroir” in which the grapes are grown, so too would chocolate take pleasure in careful selection from specific estates. Here, he reveals the trade secrets of the art of fine chocolate making: learn to roast, grind, and temper the chocolate at home similar to the professionals and master all aspects of chocolate making. His recipes run the gamut of chocolate possibilities—impossible to resist creamy sauces, decadent pastries, bars, truffles, and even a smattering of savory dishes—and are beautifully presented and gorgeously photographed in this handsome volume that no chocolate lover must be without.
