Amour
The creation of this book has been quite the
adventure.
I have experienced some epic fails, but also
made some truly beautiful recipes.

From the ultra decadence of the Chocolate


Mousse Cake, to the super creamy and tart
Crème Fraiche Ice Cream the desserts
following are quite simply delicious.

I hope you can find a “sweetie” or two for the


occasional treat.
With love from my kitchen to yours, I give you
Amour...
