Wholesale Hot Cocoa Comfort by Michael Turback

[Skyhorse Publishing] Make cocoa an everyday, year-round treat with these body- and soul-warming new takes! The everyday comfort of true hot cocoa is grounded in memories of grandma’s kitchen, where slow food was a practice, not a movement.

The book recalls cocoa’s ancient origins, offers instructions on tools and techniques for preparation, then stretches palate perspectives with fifty home kitchen-friendly drinks and paired small plates. These delightfully nuanced recipes include: • Malted Hot Cocoa
