Chocolate Velvet Mousse, Mont Blanc, Chocolate Cheesecake, Devil’s Food Cake… Just about every chocolate-lover’s favorite dessert is among the 85 recipes. The book is part of a series published by Sainsbury’s and written by leading authors of the time (New York-born Lousada among them) and the recipes, some with an American influence, are thoroughly reliable.

When you want something bound to please, chocolate is the answer. Everyone loves it, and in this book, white and dark chocolate appear in more guises than you can imagine. Along with soufflés, hot puddings, cakes and biscuits, there are delectable ice creams and sorbets and tempting truffles and bonbons, together with imaginative cold desserts for a spectacular finale to a dinner party.
