Frequently Asked Questions About Hazelnut concentrate
What is hazelnut concentrate?
Hazelnut concentrate is a dense, flavorful paste made by grinding hazelnuts. A plain version is different from chocolate hazelnut spread, which typically includes ingredients such as sugar and cocoa.
How do you use hazelnut concentrate?
Use hazelnut concentrate as a spread, stir it into oatmeal or yogurt, or add it to baking, sauces, and desserts. Its flavor is intense, so start with a small amount and adjust to taste.
Is hazelnut concentrate the same as hazelnut butter?
They can describe very similar ground-hazelnut pastes. “Concentrate” may refer to a denser product intended for recipes, while hazelnut butter is commonly sold as a spread; the ingredients and texture vary by product.
Why does oil separate in hazelnut concentrate?
Oil can rise to the surface because hazelnuts naturally contain oil, and separation alone does not mean the concentrate has spoiled. Stir it thoroughly with a clean utensil before use to bring the oil back into the paste.
How should you store hazelnut concentrate after opening?
Keep hazelnut concentrate tightly closed in a cool, dark place, away from heat and sunlight. Warm storage can speed up oil separation and flavor deterioration; refrigeration may make the paste firmer, so let it soften before spreading if needed.
Can you make hazelnut spread with hazelnut concentrate?
Yes. Mix hazelnut concentrate with cocoa and a sweetener to make a simple hazelnut spread. Add the sweetener gradually, and adjust the texture with a little liquid if the mixture is too thick.
Can you bake with hazelnut concentrate?
Yes, hazelnut concentrate adds flavor to cakes, cookies, fillings, and ganache. Because it is rich in oil, it can change a recipe’s texture, so account for the other fats when adding it to batter.
Can hazelnut concentrate replace ground hazelnuts in a recipe?
Sometimes, but hazelnut concentrate is much more oily and paste-like than ground hazelnuts. Replacing all the nuts directly can make a recipe too wet or dense, so adjust the other ingredients to match the intended texture.
Can you make hazelnut concentrate at home?
Yes. Blend roasted hazelnuts in a powerful food processor until they turn from crumbs into a smooth paste. Pause the machine as needed to prevent overheating, and scrape down the sides so the nuts grind evenly.
Does hazelnut concentrate work in coffee or hot chocolate?
Yes, a small spoonful can add a nutty flavor to coffee or hot chocolate. Stir it in thoroughly while the drink is warm; the paste may not dissolve completely, so blending or whisking helps create a smoother drink.

What is Hazelnut concentrate?
Hazelnut concentrate is made by grinding hazelnuts into a dense preparation with a pronounced nutty flavour. It is commonly used as an ingredient in baking and confectionery, where it adds hazelnut taste to fillings, cakes, biscuits and ice cream. It may not be the same as a sweetened hazelnut spread, so check the label if that distinction matters to you.
Its texture can be smooth or slightly grainy, and a little goes a long way. You can stir it into porridge or yoghurt, spread it on toast, or use it to enrich desserts. It is energy-dense and mostly fat, with some protein and fibre; 100 g provides 58 g of fat. For a lighter snack, use a small spoonful alongside fruit or yoghurt.
