From the creator of the award-winning food blog, Butter and
Brioche, comes a unique and beautifully designed full-color
cookbook that brings wild flavors to desserts as told through the
seasons. In Wild Sweetness, Thalia Ho captures the essence of the
wild, and re-imagines it on the plate. She guides us through a tale
of six distinct seasons and the flavors inspired by them: of
bright, herbaceous new life in spring, to the aromatic florals that
follow, of bursting summer berries, over-ripe fruit, warmth and
spice in fall, then ending with winter and its smolder. In more
than 95 recipes, Thalia opens our eyes and taste buds to a
celebration of what the wild has to offer-a world of sweet
escapism, using flavor to heighten our experience of food.
Enthralling, unique, and inspired recipes you'll want to cook over

chocolate. A famous chocolate addict, she once declared: 'I am the
Chairperson of the Board of the Chocolate Lovers Association of the

elaborate confections (like Maida's September 7th Cake, her
perennial birthday cake), this is a must-have book for chocolate
lovers and for any baker who lives to please a crowd.
