I'm one step up from a beginner.

I make truffles on the most basic, not very polished level (no tempering, for example).

I also use chocolate in biscotti and in some cakes.

I'd like three or four books that will help take me up a notch or two.

I like good illustrated directions.
I have very little interest in the whole history of chocolate.

I have no plans to make a wide variety of candies, just better truffles, more baking choices, and more alternative chocolate deserts (such as mousse)

I also have very little interest in sculptured designs, etc.

More info on choosing chocolates and some basic chocolate making tools would also be helpful.

So please take a shot with some of your favorites, going right up ands through 2011.

Thanks.

Mark

Two changes we made with the chocolate is that this time we winnowed the chocolate. This time we didn't use a blow dryer to melt the chocolate. Two improvements with the chocolate is that the melanger didn't get clogged this time and everyone put in work.
