A love letter to chocolate with 100 recipes to bake, taste and adore.

In this definitive collection you’ll find classic flavours like Chocolate and Whipped Caramel Cake, sleek layered creations like Edd’s Hazelnut and Maple Milk Chocolate Tart, as well as delightful desserts such as Pistachio Tiramisu.

Edd shares creative takes on favourites such as Miso and White Chocolate Cookies or S’mores Brownies, and guides you through baking breads and pastries with chocolate, including Bistro Profiteroles and Sour Cherry Custard Buns with Cocoa Streusel.
There’s a recipe for every occasion here. Sometimes the chocolate flavour is front and centre, sometimes it plays a supporting role, but each recipe is a celebration of this very special ingredient.
