My occupation used to be sparked by a single bite of a chocolate truffle, made by my Paris landlady in 1972. I returned dwelling to begin this country’s first chocolate bakery and dessert store, Cocolat, and I’m usually “blamed” for introducing chocolate truffles to The US. On the present time I’m the James Beard Foundation and IACP award-profitable author of ten cookbooks, roar a chocolate dessert class on Craftsy.com, and work with a couple of of the realm’s finest chocolate companies. In 2018, I received the IACP Award for Excellent Meals-Centered Column (this one!).
