Silvia Martini Gianduja Hazelnut and Cacao Cream
Lusciously sweet, it is not overpoweringly so. Creamy, it is a wonderful and classic blend of hazelnut and chocolate flavors. Pronounced jahn-due-ya, this cream that is a blend of hazelnuts, cacao powder, and sugar, was originally born in the Piedmont capital of Turin before eventually being commercialized by Ferrero as “Nutella”. In fact, that is why we consider this a great alternative for those that find Nutella too sweet or processed. Made in the shop of woman artisan farmer Silvia Martini.
