Barbara Disborough will be signing her book, but there is a rumor that there may be a tasting too!

The Chocolate Lady Says, "The Guide to Chocolate
in the Grand Traverse Region is a book about chocolate in
northwest Michigan. This is what it isn't: It is not an
esoteric treatise on chocolate. It is not about the growing,
harvesting and selling of chocolate. You will not find the research
about the nutritional or psychological effects of the cocoa bean, nor
a wrist-slapping for over-indulgence. This is not a heady tome by any means.

The Guide to Chocolate
in the Grand Traverse Region is a book of joy, of eating, of
satiation, and indulgence. Barbara Disborough has charted for you a
road map to the pit stops of decadence along the ways to the
wineries, beaches, galleries and restaurants. You will find in its
pages the sources for truffles, fudges, desserts and beverages as
well as recipes to try, poetry to sooth your chocolate soul, a map
for your choco-travels, and an array of coupons for the local
choco-fare. It is a romp from truffle to mousse to mole."
