Chocolate has been famously paired with wine, tea, coffee, cheese, nuts, and fruit—even blended drinks. But never the one thing that stimulates your sense of wonder and imagination: a great book!
Inspired by the phrase bean to bar, Book-to-BarTM is a book paired with a bar of high quality, high flavor craft chocolate. This Book-to-Bar gift bundle wraps up the mythic fantasy The Jaguar and the Cacao Tree and a bar of melt-in-your-mouth craft chocolate from a maker that the author has come to know and love through her research and serving as a judge for the International Chocolate Salon Awards.
Book-to-Bar bundles are beautiful, unique gift sets. They're just perfect for people who appreciate a good book and a good bar of chocolate. And yes, you should get one for yourself as well!
Nothing like this exists, and it's only available through this site and participating chocolate and gift shops.
The Book-to-Bar gift set includes:
• The mythic fantasy The Jaguar and the Cacao Tree
• The eBook of The Jaguar and the Cacao Tree (in both ePub and mobi formats)
• A bar of craft chocolate from a select chocolate maker
Special bonus gifts
• Themed screensavers for your desktop and wallpapers for smartphones
• Access to the premium content areas of The Jaguar and the Cacao Tree microsite
When you check out, please be sure to indicate any allergies, as some of the chocolate may contain or be produced in a facility that processes nuts, milk, or other ingredients.
After reading almost every book or blog on the subject,
The Jaguar and the Cacao Tree is a strong contender for
the best title in the last 5 years.
