The Delia Collection: Chocolate
By Delia Smith

Arranged for the first time by subject, the irrepressible Delia Smith releases her ultimate eight part collection with classics, favourites and all new recipes, lets look closer at this book dedicated to chocolate.

Chocolate, one of the first four titles published in a planned eight title release for The Delia Collection. In compiling the Collection, Delia has chosen her best and most popular recipes - updating old favourites and adding some that are completely new. These are books aimed both at experienced cooks and at newcomers to home cooking who can be sure that, with Delia's friendly and approachable style, they will be guided by a trusted hand through her fail-safe recipes.

The book has over 50 recipes using chocolate. According to Delia, patience is essential when melting chocolate for cooking. Follow the instructions to the letter and never rush it, and you'll get it right, every time.

Review:
Mouthwatering photography and easy to follow recipes. Some great classics with a new spin on the creative side for presentation. For those of you who like to try something a new and creative there are some inspiring ideas. But if youre looking for something quick, easy and tasty, shes got that too. The Delia Collection: Chocolate, is beautifully published and would make the ideal gift for chocolate lovers and cooks at heart. My personal party favorite idea for a quick, easy and effective treat is; Miniature Choc Ices.
