Warning: these hedonistic recipes aren't for the faint of heart! (I admit it. I actually licked page 92.)" --Dynise Balcavage, author of Pies and Tarts with Heart and The Urban Vegan "I am an ardent proponent of clean, unadulterated flavors. Years ago I've eliminated milk and cream from my chocolate cakes to achieve a truer flavor statement. From a culinary standpoint, Fran Costigan demonstrates the same desire for purity. With scientifically-based explanations and the refined palate of a trained pastry-chef, she teaches both amateur and professional cooks how to make amazing desserts without any animal sources. Not only are the recipes safe for the vegan lifestyle and allergy sufferers, they stand on their own as ambrosial desserts." --Ron Ben-Israel, owner of Ron Ben-Israel Cakes and host of Sweet Genius "Fran Costigan's Vegan Chocolate is the holy grail of sweet, plant-based treats!
