Care Santos
Three women, three centuries and the same bone-china chocolate pot. Care Santos takes us on a spellbinding journey through the evolution of chocolate, from the cocoa beans first arrival in Europe to the many sophisticated products derived from it today. Luscious and addictive, this novel will delight the readers senses from start to finish.
Three women, three centuries and the same bone-china chocolate pot: Sara, the scion of a dynasty of chocolatiers from Barcelona, who prides herself on maintaining the family tradition; Aurora, the daughter of a nineteenth-century maidservant, for whom chocolate is a forbidden luxury; Mariana, the wife of the most famous seventeenth-century chocolate manufacturer, an official purveyor to the French court and the inventor of a revolutionary chocolate mill.
