Editor's Notes and Comments:
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.

Naked Chocolate is an extraordinary collection of information not just about chocolate in general, but about every element of the world's most beloved food. I found it extremely helpful while researching the health benefits of chocolate, and in fact I found information in this book that I couldn't find anywhere else because this author clealry doesn't just study chocolate in a lab--he lives it. The stated research is clearly labeled, referenced and organized, and the many lists of helpful resources and creative recipes are invaluable. No chocolate library is complete without this book!

Entertaining to read, informative, but also I now am better able to deal with all the organic raw beans I bought from Mountain Rose Herbs.
