About Hazelnut spread

Hazelnut spread is a smooth or textured spread in which hazelnuts are a defining ingredient. It is commonly spread on bread or used as a filling or topping in sweet preparations. Products are sold in jars and may be formulated with cocoa or other ingredients.

Its texture ranges from soft and easily spreadable to thicker, with flavour and sweetness varying by formulation. Some versions are smooth; others contain nut pieces. The generic name does not specify the proportions of hazelnut, sugar, oils, cocoa, or other ingredients.
