Confections! What did we make? (2017 – )

[minas6907]

I just randomly searched for the 3rd edition of Chocolates and Confections, and saw more info on Wiley's website. 

 

See here

 

Also, you can download a PDF with more info on the book, I'll see if I can attach it here. 

 

Part of it says "The new edition of Chocolates and Confections delivers a unique combination of clear explanations of confectionery science, beautiful artisan techniques, and dependable formulas for confectioners, students in confectionery courses, or anyone who makes chocolates in their restaurant, hotel, or candy shop."

 

I'll be interested in differences and new content, but at the same time can't help but think it's more of a superficial refresh that CIA gives to their books every sometines.

Interesting. The chocolate pictured on its cover is a new one of my memory serves me right. So at least one new recipe?

Yes, that is a new bonbon for Greweling (or at least a new decoration).  He has not been a huge fan of decorations, certainly not the elaborate ones that are all over Instagram and elsewhere in the past few years.  I am interested that he would go for a third edition: I watched an interview with him that Tomric did in which Greweling expressed his reluctance to participate in the second edition--he said he was quite satisfied with the first one.  I suppose what the publisher wants, the publisher gets.  And we will all purchase the new one for "fear of missing out."

I have too many books already. 😅 No FOMO here, unless there are substantial additions/changes.
