Reviews for Chocolate for Beginners

I like to think of Kate Shaffer as Dr. Chocolate since she is able to troubleshoot any chocolate problem you could possibly encounter. In Chocolate for Beginners, she offers up an enticing collection of chocolate treats--from truffles to toffee, cakes to candy, pies to tarts. This is a book you'll want to keep in the kitchen to refer to, and cook from, over and over again. --Kathy Gunst, Resident Chef for NPR's Here and Now and author of Rage Baking--The Transformative Power of Flour, Fury and Women's Voices.
