Taste Profile: sweet, rich, smooth, nutty, chocolate. Pairing: Great on bread or pancakes.One of the most symbolic products of Italy worldwide has become Nutella, by Ferrero. Unfortunately it is a mass produced highly industrialized product containing mainly palm oil (environmentally damaging and unsafe for health), artificial flavours and low quality hazelnuts imported from the Middle East. It is produced in Alba, Piemonte, a land known for its extremely high quality hazelnuts, but too expensive to be an ingredient for such a low quality product. Bellina's chocolate spreads are made by artisanal producers that only use high quality selected ingredients. All these spreads come from a traditional chocolate product called gianduia. Since the 1800 the chocolate capital of Italy has always been Turin (Piemonte), here in the second half of the 19th century Gianduia was invented. Hazlenuts were used instead of cocoa beans as a lack of the latter during Italy's independence wars. Established in 1850 in the centre of Maglie, in the heart of Salento, Maglio has created an extraordinary heritage of confectionary making. Tradition and passion for this work has been passed down through the family, to craft fruit pralines, fruit jellies, aromatic biscuits and delicious jams, with ingredients like sustainably produced cocoa beans.
