NUTELLA®: A HISTORY OF PASSION, INVENTION AND POSITIVITY
Do you know the history signature recipe and unmistakable taste of Nutella®?
After the Second World War, cocoa was extremely scarce. Founded as an Italian pastry shop in Piedmont, Italy, Ferrero turned this problem into a smart solution, creating a sweet paste made from hazelnuts, sugar, and just a little of the rare cocoa. The ancestor of Nutella® was born.
The Giandujot, named after a local carnival character, was a paste shaped into a loaf that could be sliced and spread on bread.
The 'Giandujot' paste was transformed into a creamy new product that was easier to spread named SuperCrema.
The recipe was continually improved and in 1964 the first ever jar of Nutella® was created.
A hazelnut and cocoa cream that today spreads smiles around the world.
