Product Description
Product Description
With the mission to “lay naked before the world the true meaning of chocolate,” David Wolfe and Shazzie present a spirited and unconventional history, materia medica, and recipe book for the world’s most pleasurable food: chocolate. This book describes the wonders of cacao–where it comes from, how it is processed, its three varieties, and its origins and role in pre-Columbian cultures of the Americas. It explains the scientific properties and health benefits of chocolate, and elaborates how you will lose weight, soothe your heart, double your joy, increase your sensuality, nourish your intellect, and attract prosperity by eating it!In contrast to most books about chocolate, this one focuses on the raw cacao bean, or “naked” chocolate. Of course, this chocolate manual wouldn’t be complete without a step-by-step guide on what to do with the cacao beans, and over sixty original and mouthwatering chocolate recipes guaranteed to enhance your life.

Just to let you know that this book is the same as the white cover with hands on it. Though it looks like a newer version, it's an exact reprint. Only the covers are different. This one is shipped from the USA; the white one is printed in the UK and it's cheaper. Both are available her on Amazon. Hope this clears it up for anyone scratching their heads.

Cacao nibs are the best, they control cravings and suppress apatite, and im talking from experience.
Haven't tried any recipes, don't really have the time but the info is very interesting

This book is fascinating. Whilst I have not got very far into it yet, as it is not an easy read, I am enjoying finding out all about chocolate from its very beginning. I have not read ahead to find out what is to come as I am so enjoying unravelling the information as I go. It is a book so obviously written with love for its subject and that is contagious.
As I said, not an 'easy read' but a fascinating one that will keep me entertained for some months to come.
