About Hazelnut and cocoa spread

Hazelnut and cocoa spread is a sweet, spreadable mixture featuring hazelnuts and cocoa. The name identifies its main flavour elements but does not establish their proportions or the other ingredients; commercial and homemade versions can differ substantially in nuts, sweeteners and fats.

It is commonly used as a bread spread, filling or topping. It is usually smooth and creamy, with a brown colour and a sweet, roasted-nut and cocoa flavour. Some versions are thicker or contain ground nut particles. The balance between nutty, chocolate-like and sweet notes depends on the recipe.
