Mariebelle Entertains: Savory and Sweet Recipes for Every Occasion from the Master Chocolatier

For this wonderful book about entertaining, the internationally recognized hostess, also known for being a master chocolatier, showcases her table settings and fusion-style savory recipes enhanced with the flavors of her native Honduras.

This entertaining and recipe book, with stained chocolate-brown edges, features occasion-driven menus, ranging from casual meals to elegant dinners; from French formal table settings to garden parties; from bohemian New York lunches to colorful picnics on a Caribbean beach. Photographed on location in Honduras, America, France, Spain, and Italy, her joyful tabletops are inspiring.

The variety of Lieberman's bold flavor palette includes approachable recipes for light salads, fragrant soups, seafood, and meat dishes, as well as savory nibbles and, of course, chocolate desserts and confections. They include Sopa de Capirotadas, Grilled Mahi Mahi with Pineapple and Cilantro, Short Ribs with Chocolate Sauce, Yuca Fritters with Grated Tomato Sauce, Matcha Truffles, and Molten Chocolate Cakes. This recipe collection is for those looking for new ideas for entertaining and hoping to explore a unique Latin American-infused cuisine.

A delightful detail: the book, with its stained edges, mimics MarieBelle's distinctive chocolate box design.
