This is cooking with chocolate for the home cook: luscious, decadent recipes that are both classic and contemporary. Kirsten Tibballs, dubbed "Australia’s queen of chocolate" by MasterChef
Australia, runs a school for home cooks who aspire to master the delicate arts of chocolate and patisserie. Her years of experience as a leading chocolatier and a teacher make her

instruction and accompanying photography so you feel as if you are being hand-held from start to finish. From the ultimate recipe for brownies or chocolate chip cookies to coconut, raspberry,
and chocolate tarts, caramel chocolate mousse cake, chocolate creme brulee, milk chocolate honey truffles—this is chocolate at its luscious, gorgeous best.
