Katelyn’s Chocolate Cake
‘Chocolate’ by Katelyn Williams (that’s me) is available at all major bookstores across South Africa and online via LOOT and Exclusive Books. If you’ve already got your copy, I would love to see you with ‘Chocolate’ so please share it with me on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram so I can THANK YOU personally for your support! And if you’ve already made a recipe from the book, I’d love to see that even more!

If you follow me on social media you will already have seen me teasing you with delectable chocolate-themed clips for two weeks now. (If you missed it then head this way! )Well, I can finally announce that I wrote a cookbook and it’s all about my favourite ingredient in the world, Chocolate!

My book is filled with over 90 brand new recipes that are dipped, drizzled, stuffed, rolled and coated in all forms of chocolate. From white, milk and dark to cocoa nibs, cocoa powder and even cocoa butter! The recipes are divided into 7 chapters, each dedicated to the kinds of cravings I have for chocolate; speedy, naughty, fancy, crunchy etc. In classic The Kate Tin style, there are recipes that are so easy that your kids can make them, others that will take a little effort and some that will challenge you but will be oh-so-worth the wow factor!

Every single page of this book will make you drool and that’s largely thanks to the stunning photography of my fellow food blogging sensation Hein van Tonder of Heinstirred who went above and beyond to capture every calorie.

You can find my cookbook in all major bookstores from the 15 November but if you’re an eager beaver and cannot wait, you can pre-order it over on Loot.co.za here.
