World Nutella Day 2022: History and ways to enjoy this delicious day

World Nutella Day celebrates what happens when hazelnuts and chocolate collide. For example, millions of people celebrate all on February 5th each year!

It is often said that necessity is the mother of invention. Adding hazelnuts when cocoa is hard to come by may have been an Italian trick during hard times.

In the 1800s, in the northern Italian city of Piedmont, they made a paste of chocolate and hazelnuts at a time when the nuts were abundant, but the cocoa was not.

At the end of World War II, cocoa was once again difficult to come by. Pastry Maker, Pietro Ferrero, made loaves of this sweet paste and called it Giandujot.

Soon after, the Ferrero Company was founded on May 14, 1946.

It wasn’t until 1951 that Ferrero made the paste into a spreadable form. We wouldn’t even recognize the spread by name until 1964 when Ferrero’s son Michele gave the jar of creamy hazelnut and cocoa the name Nutella.

History of World Nutella Day:

Nutella, released to the world by the Fererro family under its current name in the mid-1960s, has roots that go back to the early 1800s.

“Gianduja” was the name for a sweet, chocolate hazelnut confection that was invented in Turin, Italy during the reign of Napoleon.

Its creation was motivated by the fact that there was a shortage of cocoa supplies at the time, so a chocolatier added some hazelnuts to stretch the chocolate.

How to observe World Nutella Day:

Enjoy your favorite hazelnut spread. It’s that simple! Of course, we always suggest celebrating with a friend or family member. Celebrations are best when shared.

Create a new recipe or try the one you’ve itching to try. Don’t have any? Well, we’ve found a few. And share your favorites while you’re testing and tasting, too!

Different ways to enjoy Nutella:

  • Make a sandwich: Find two slices of bread. Spread a thick layer of Nutella on one. Slap the other on top. And there you have it!
  • Add ice cream: Nutella makes a perfect topping for ice cream, especially after being heated up.
  • Nutella for breakfast: Nutella goes well on a bagel or as stuffing in a crepe.
  • Donuts: Rather than using a regular cream or custard filling for your donuts, try Nutella.
  • The easy way: Just rip the top of that tub of Nutella and eat it with a spoon.
