Coffee as a flavor ingredient

Unlike most "coffee" cookbooks, which are about making various kinds of coffee drinks, this book contains the full spectrum of regular recipes which happen to use coffee as a flavor ingredient (150 pages of recipes, 3-5 recipes per two page spread). This makes it unique among coffee cookbooks that I have encountered. The categories are: Appetizers, Beverages & Condiments, Breads and Quick Breads, Soups and Salads, Entrees, Desserts (lots of desserts!). They are the results of entries from the annual Kona Coffee Cultural Festival, which I saw covered on a tv show. I have not yet tried any of the recipes, but the ones in the show sounded good. Just randomly paging, here are some recipe titles: Kona Coffee Wine (uses coffee berry pulp), Kona Coffee "Pate" with Pistachio, Kona Coffee Chicken Salad, Quick Date Kona Coffee Cake, Lamb Roast with Kona Coffee Gravy, Kona Coffee Pork Roulade, Kona Coffee Banana Cake, Kona Coffee Marshmallow Candy, Kona Coffee Gelatin. You get the idea. Because of its unique niche and the way the recipes sounded when I saw them on tv, I'm giving it 5 stars. It is much better than the usual club benefit recipe collection, but if using coffee as a flavor ingredient does not interest you, then for you it is probably close to 4 or 3 stars.
