Pierre Herme: Chocolate

This is not only a chef's masterpiece but of a photographer's as well. By far, this is the most beautiful cookbook I've ever seen. I have almost all of Pierre's cookbooks as part of my collection.This version contains a mix of new recipes and some classics that he elevated to better versions. Recipes seem to be complicated but truly they're not once you embark on them. Odd thing though is that the recipe of the cover photo, Cerise sur le Gateau, is not in the book! But that's fine as it's got great, extra delicious ones. This book puts Chocolate on top of the line.
