🙋 Frequently Asked Questions
Nutella is a popular sweet spread made from a combination of sugar, palm oil, hazelnuts, cocoa solids, and milk powder (in that order). It has a creamy texture and a mild chocolate-hazelnut flavor, making it a favorite for spreading on bread, pancakes, waffles, and using in various Nutella dessert recipes.
Nutella is definitely a dessert. It's very high in sugar, and often used as a spread or filling in other desserts, commonly associated with sweet treats. So while it can be enjoyed in a variety of ways, including as a topping for toast or fruit, its rich chocolate-hazelnut flavor makes it a popular choice for desserts.
Some popular pairings with Nutella include spreading it on toast, using it as a dip for fruits such as strawberries and bananas, incorporating it into crepes or waffles, or even using it as a filling for pastries or cakes.
No, Nutella is not better for you than chocolate. While both Nutella and chocolate contain sugar and fat - and it's important to consume them in moderation - Nutella is over 55% sugar with a small amount of hazelnuts and even more palm oil. Nutella does contain hazelnuts, which provide some healthy fats and a small amount of protein, but it's much less nutrition than even a cheap milk chocolate provides.
