Everyone loves chocolate!
Chocolate is often a dieter's downfall, but if you Somersize, it doesn't have to be. In the tradition of her bestselling Somersize Desserts comes Suzanne Somers' newest contribution to the Somersize phenomenon—guilt-free recipes for mouthwatering goodies that satisfy chocolate cravings without causing a dieting disaster. Thanks to SomerSweet, Suzanne's revolutionary sweetener with less than one gram of carbohydrate and zero sugars per serving, you can enjoy scrumptious low-carb desserts such as:
• Molten Chocolate Cake with White Chocolate Lava
• White Chocolate Pots de Crème
• Chocolate Crepes with Mascarpone Filling
• Grasshopper Pie with Chocolate Curls
• Chocolate-Dipped Cocoa Meringue Cookies

With these thirty recipes, you'll never have to trade dessert for a smaller waistline. By incorporating these tasty treats into your Somersize program, you can look and feel great without depriving yourself of any of your favorite foods.
Publishers Weekly
Somers's latest is little more than a pamphlet of 30-odd recipes, many of which readers can find in other books. But it's bound to please its target readers-women who love chocolate and want to lose weight-because it's everything they need it to be: it gives instructions for making easy, quick desserts that are low in carbohydrates (though not always low in calories). Somers designs her book around the chocolate version of her own sweetener, SomerSweet, which is available for sale on her Web site. The book is therefore practically useless if readers don't purchase SomerSweet Chocolate Baking Bars (although Somers does give measurements for making the desserts with sugar and sugared chocolate, those results won't please carb-counters). Quibbles aside, there's no arguing with the decadence of such treats as Molten Chocolate Cake with White Chocolate Lava, Mini Coconut Baked Alaska, or Caramel Chocolate Brownie Sundaes. Somers's relentlessly upbeat tone runs through the book ("I have always loved pound cake. Now that it's chocolate, there's even more reason to love it!"), and she gives the level of difficulty for each recipe (oddly, though, no recipe is tougher than "level two"). 30 color photos. (Nov.) Forecast: Somers seems to have the golden touch, whether she's talking about hormone replacement, mastering the art of obtaining slim thighs, or selling her wares on the Home Shopping Network. Ads in Family Circle and Ladies' Home Journal will bump holiday sales for this book. Copyright 2004 Reed Business Information.
