On World Nutella Day, here’s what you need to know about the chocolate-hazelnut spread.
After World War II, cocoa was scarce, so Pietro Ferrero, the Italian founder of the confectionery Ferrero, created a paste from hazelnuts, sugar and a small amount of cocoa, according to the Ferrero website.
That spread was turned into a loaf that was meant to be sliced and spread onto bread called Giandujot in 1946, then changed to a jarred spread called SuperCrema in 1951, the website said.
