Coffee & Cacao: Better Together

By: MICHELLE HOFFMANN

What happens when one very energetic Coffee Bean meets one clever, patient Cacao Bean?

Apparently, quite a lot.

Coffee loves adventure, complicated equipment, fascinating history, and any idea that begins with, "What could possibly go wrong?" Cacao prefers thinking things through first, although somehow she keeps getting pulled into Coffee's plans anyway.

Together, Coffee and Cacao explore the surprising worlds behind two of our favorite flavors. Along the way, they discover the history of cacao, follow coffee's remarkable journey across the world, investigate the meaning of mocha, experiment with roasting and chocolate making, visit coffeehouse culture, meet a few flavorful friends, and learn why two very different beans can make such a wonderful pair.

Of course, learning together has consequences.

Friendship turns into something neither of them expected, Coffee attempts a proposal that very nearly collapses under the weight of everyone's helpful advice, and wedding plans eventually lead to misplaced rings, a leaning cake, rain, laughter, and a little café filled with the people they love.

Funny, warmhearted, and sprinkled with real food history, this is a story about curiosity, friendship, love, and discovering that the best relationships do not require us to become exactly alike.

Sometimes the things that make us different are the very things that make us better together.

Perfect for coffee lovers, chocolate lovers, food-history fans, café dreamers, and anyone who believes a good story is even better with something warm in your favorite mug.
