Nutella, a Hazelnut cocoa spread, has a large global following and has ruled many people's hearts for six decades. The hazelnut spread that has been immensely popular for generations continues to mesmerise children and adults alike with its delectable taste.
The velvety spread feels heavenly on your slice of bread for all intents and purposes on your soft breakfast pancake. A perfect answer to your little one’s tantrums over the breakfast table, Nutella is an indispensable feature of our dining table.
History of Nutella Day
The tale of Nutella traces back around the end of World War 2 when Pietro Ferrero in a small town in northern Italy made an overwhelming blend of the plentiful hazelnuts and scant cocoa, alongside sugar and fats.
While the early edition of Nutella wasn’t in a liquid shape, the first spreadable variant was launched years later and was called Supercrema. It was not before 1964 that Nutella, as we know it today, was born, becoming a global hit.
Food blogger Sara Rosso established World Nutella Day in 2007 to celebrate this yummy nutty spread that she discovered while living in Italy.
