Chocolate from bean to bake

This revised guide pairs more than fifty recipes with a broader look at chocolate: its history, bean-to-bar producers, and chocolate shops in Paris, alongside David Lebovitz’s experience working in a Belgian chocolate shop. Practical sections cover sourcing, storing, and using chocolate, while the recipes range from cookies, cakes, and truffles to ice cream and a Chocolate Negroni. Fifteen recipes are new to this edition, which also includes fresh photography from Paris and San Francisco. The mix of ingredient knowledge and varied baking projects gives the book both reference value and plenty of ways to put chocolate to use.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Home bakers seeking chocolate-focused recipes across several dessert categories
  • Chocolate enthusiasts interested in its history, producers, and shops
  • Cooks looking for practical guidance on sourcing and handling chocolate
