The Chocolate Press

A Chocoholic Guide to Melbourne



 
 

With hot and cold running chocolate, this book has it all – absolutely everything for the chocoholic who lives to eat the food of the gods.  Discover where to buy the best quality chocolates, from velvety truffles to liqueurs, as well as gorgeous pastries, cakes and desserts. Where’s the best hot chocolate? Try Brunetti’s in Carlton; theirs is syrupy thick, luscious and topped with whipped fresh cream. Who makes the best liquer-filled chocolate? Possibly Didier Cadinot whose poire William tastes as if the pears have just fallen off the back of a truck from Packenham. The best petits fours? Hunt out Sissy’s Bix in suburban Blackburn.

Try your willpower with Melbourne chefs’ favourite chocolate recipes. Loretta Sartori’s chocolate coffee tart will wow your guests. Bored with wine tasting? Suzie shows you how to taste chocolate.

This is a book to curl up with and a book to take on the road. No resident or visitor to Melbourne should be let loose on the city without it. Handy, easy to read maps guide you on your quest and helpful tips make the journey easier.
