I Love Chocolate I Love Thermomix
« on: June 12, 2013, 08:54:38 am »
Just got my new book and first impressions are  "Wow, amazing".
This book is a joy to sit down with and meander through - wonderful,varied recipes and photography to die for.
I am delighted so far, but, of course, the proof will be in the pudding, as they say, when I've had the chance to make a few things. Can't wait to play and put on a stone or three!
So far, so good.

I'll look forward to hearing about it. Happy cooking.

Dare I ask the question raised elsewhere on the forum in the past couple of days ... does each recipe have a calorie count?  I LOVE chocolate and would love this book, but unfortunately, chocolate is not so fond of me these days so I will be watching the reviews of this book filled with envy!  Forget the calories - enjoy your baking.

No, no calorie counts included - that's another thing about this book that I love. It's sheer indulgence!

When you start cooking from this book past94x, we can start a new thread for reviews.  As soon as we can get our hands on an index we will post that too.

Just received an email from Amazon to say that the seller cannot fill my order for this book.  It's taken nearly a week to respond and I have asked why, as the seller had said they send internationally.  I have rechecked the site and two of the sellers have been removed and the remaining one now does not sell internationally.  Looks like my only option now is to call UK headquarters!!!!  Postage is the killer as they want 18.95 pounds per book!!!!

What a bummer Trudy, it seems this book is going to be very hard to get hold of.

Will be interesting to hear what the seller has to say - that is if he takes the trouble to answer the query Maddy.
