Frequently Asked Questions About Hazelnut cocoa spread
What is hazelnut cocoa spread made of?
Hazelnut cocoa spread is a sweet spread made with hazelnuts and cocoa. Depending on the product, it may also contain sugar, oils, milk ingredients, or other additions, so the exact recipe and taste differ between brands.
Is hazelnut cocoa spread the same as Nutella?
No. Nutella is one branded hazelnut cocoa spread, while hazelnut cocoa spread is the general product category. Other brands can differ in hazelnut content, sweetness, texture, and the types of oils or other ingredients used.
Should hazelnut cocoa spread be refrigerated?
Usually, hazelnut cocoa spread is best kept tightly closed in a cool, dry cupboard, where it stays easier to spread. Refrigeration can make it firm. Follow the storage instructions on the jar if they specify otherwise.
How long does hazelnut cocoa spread last after opening?
Opened hazelnut cocoa spread can generally be kept in its closed jar in a cool, dry place, but the product label gives the relevant storage directions and date. Use a clean, dry utensil and discard it if you notice mold or an unusual smell.
Can you bake with hazelnut cocoa spread?
Yes, hazelnut cocoa spread works as a filling or topping for cookies, cakes, pastries, and pancakes. It softens as it heats, so seal it inside dough to limit leaking, and account for its sweetness when adjusting a recipe.
Why does hazelnut cocoa spread separate?
Oil can rise to the top of hazelnut cocoa spread as its ingredients separate during storage. If it looks and smells normal, stir it thoroughly with a clean, dry utensil. Do not eat it if you see mold or notice an off smell.
How do you make hazelnut cocoa spread at home?
To make hazelnut cocoa spread, blend roasted hazelnuts until they form a smooth paste, then mix in cocoa and a sweetener. Add a little oil if needed for a softer texture; homemade versions lack the same guaranteed shelf life as sealed commercial jars.
What goes well with hazelnut cocoa spread?
Hazelnut cocoa spread pairs well with toast, crepes, pancakes, and fruit such as bananas or strawberries. For a less dessert-like snack, spread a thin layer on whole-grain bread and add sliced fruit rather than using a thick layer by itself.
Does hazelnut cocoa spread need to be stirred before use?
Not always, but hazelnut cocoa spread may need stirring if oil has separated or the texture is uneven. Use a clean, dry spoon and mix it back into the spread; avoid adding water, which can change its texture.
Does hazelnut cocoa spread cause weight gain?
Eating large amounts of hazelnut cocoa spread can contribute to weight gain because it is an energy-dense sweet spread. A thin layer is an easy way to keep the portion modest, especially when using it alongside other sweet foods.

What is Hazelnut cocoa spread?
Hazelnut cocoa spread is a sweet, smooth spread made with ground hazelnuts and cocoa. It is sold in jars and is easy to spread on toast, bread, pancakes or waffles; it is also used as a filling or topping in home baking.
Its flavour is rich and chocolatey, with a roasted hazelnut note and a thick, creamy texture. Around the world, people commonly serve it at breakfast or as a snack, sometimes with fruit or alongside tea or coffee.
