Amazon.com Review: Okay, we know you only read The Chocolate Bible for the articles, but will your friends believe you? After all, this stunning book is so overflowing with luscious photographs of chocolate in all its delectable varieties, shapes, and forms that it's hard to believe one could get any reading done under the circumstances. Still, if you can tear your eyes away from the illustrations, the text in this beautiful reference work is well worth perusing. From the history of chocolate in the first chapter to the recipes featuring a savory rather than sweet version of the bean in the last, The Chocolate Bible lives up to its name as the definitive resource. Consider unusual dishes such as Noodles with Chocolate or Mexico's wondrous combination of chiles and chocolate to make Mole sauce; how about a recipe for modeling chocolate--a substance you're meant to play with, not eat--The Chocolate Bible has them all. Recipes for macaroons and tortes, wafers and candies, cakes, fillings, and beverages are at the heart of the book, but even if you never attempt a single one, you'll still get hours of pleasure just leafing through the pages--reading the articles, of course.

 Rating:  - My daughter's FAVORITE !!!I've been mailing a cookbook to my daughter about once a month.....sort of like "Christmas around the year" to avoid the terrible rush in December. I ordered this from Amazon.com and had it shipped directly to California without seeing it myself, so I was a little apprehensive about the quality and content. I was thrilled to learn that this is now my daughter's F-A-V-O-R-I-T-E cookbook. (She called me, raving about it!) She has already made the "cover cake" which took a lot of time but was not too difficult for a non-professional cook. The book is filled with beautiful photos and incredible recipes. Rating: - Glucose: Not so hard to find.I just purchased this book. I find it excellent. Although I am a professional chef I think this book is very user friendly for the home cook. An earlier reviewer said they couldn't find glucose syrup. You can buy it in most super markets they just call it corn syrup. Use the white variety if available. It's also good for making sponge toffee. Rating:  - Worst choIcolate pecan pie on the planetI just finished tearing out the pages of this worthless book and sending them to recycling, while throwing the binder into the trash compactor with the dreadful chocolate pecan pie it spawned. Never have I seen such a degradation of Valrohna chocolate, Normandy butter, free range eggs and a great deal of time. What a dreadful, dry, disgustging mess this recipie is! Do not waste your time on it. Rating: - A Visual Delight!What a treasure of a book. Not only visually delightful it is very educational as well. Makes you drool just seeing it on the table, thus it is dangerous to diets.
