Chocolate is full of texture and taste and it can be turned into sweet and savoury, simple and sophisticated recipes. Above all, chocolate inspires many moods and so the chapters are divided into Magic (glamorous recipes for dinner parties), Abracadabra (quick and easy recipes), Light and Airy (light puddings and mousses that melt on your tongue), Licking the Bowl (for children and birthdays) and Wicked (those irresistible concoctions). As well as the more traditional ideas for cakes, puddings and biscuits, there are also more surprising recipes for soups (chocolate soup), chillis and meat (chicken mole, Italian sweet salami). Woven into the book are stories about the history and myths of chocolate and its cultivation and production, as well as tips for handling and cooking techniques.

Green & Black's was founded in 1991 by Josephine Fairley and Craig Sams from a wish to make good-quality organic chocolate without harming the environment. Green & Black's now dominate the organic chocolate market and, with UK sales predicted to rise from [pound]10m to [pound]20m by 2005, and US sales from USD800,000 to USD12m, they will soon be the leading producers of luxury chocolate.
