Chocolate Hazelnut Spread Il Colle Del Gusto

Chocolate Hazelnut Spread Il Colle Del Gusto

A Sophisticated Evolution of a Classic Favorite.

Move over, Nutella—there is a new standard for chocolate hazelnut cream. Produced by Il Colle del Gusto in Lazio, Italy, this "Noccioliva" spread is a masterclass in balance and texture. By replacing traditional fats with premium extra virgin olive oil, the artisans have created a spread with incredible smoothness and a brilliant luster. This intentional choice allows the rich, deep chocolate flavor and the intoxicating aroma of roasted hazelnuts to truly shine without being masked by heavy oils.

Why You’ll Love It

Velvety "Noccioliva" Texture: The use of extra virgin olive oil creates a silken consistency that is far more refined than standard spreads, offering a luxurious mouthfeel that melts effortlessly.

Roasted Nut Intensity: Unlike mass-market alternatives, the hazelnut profile is prominent and authentic, featuring the deep, toasted notes of high-quality Italian nuts.

A Baker’s Essential: This spread is a versatile tool for the home pastry chef. Drizzle it into bread pudding, fold it into tart fillings, or swirl it into your favorite banana bread batter for a gourmet touch.

Pure & Elegant: Perfect for a simple yet sophisticated dessert. Serve it as a dipping chocolate alongside fresh seasonal fruit, dried figs, and crunchy biscotti.
