1 tablespoon (medium) of Hazelnut spread with cocoa, unsweetened (15 g) has 81 calories. That works out to 540 calories per 100 g. It contains 3.3 g of carbs, 1.3 g of protein, 6.9 g of fat and 1.2 g of fiber. Its 0.3 mg of Copper covers 28% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 35 (low), so it raises blood sugar slowly.
Hazelnut spread with cocoa, unsweetened is a thick spread made with hazelnuts and cocoa, with no added sugar. Its hazelnut flavour comes through alongside cocoa’s deeper, gently bitter notes, and the smooth texture makes it easy to spread on toast. It also works on porridge or pancakes, or as a dip for fruit—serving ideas that fit breakfast and snacks in many places.
With plenty of hazelnuts, it is rich in fats and energy, while also providing fibre. A thin layer with banana or apple makes a satisfying pairing; if you want a lighter snack, use a modest amount rather than treating it like a low-calorie topping.

Unsweetened hazelnut spread with cocoa is a processed, smooth spread made from ground hazelnuts and cocoa, with no added sugar. Its rich texture and flavour make it useful as a spread or recipe ingredient.
It has no added sugar, but that does not necessarily mean it contains zero sugar. Hazelnuts and cocoa can contribute small amounts of naturally occurring sugars.
Yes, you can use unsweetened hazelnut spread with cocoa in place of Nutella on toast or in recipes. Expect a less sweet, more cocoa-forward taste, and remember that the texture and ingredients vary between brands.
Blend roasted hazelnuts in a powerful food processor until they turn into a smooth butter, then blend in cocoa. Leave out sugar for an unsweetened version, or add a sweetener if you want a sweeter spread.
Usually, it can be kept in a cool, dry cupboard with the lid tightly closed. Refrigeration may make the spread firmer; follow the storage directions on the jar if they specify otherwise.
Oil separation is usually natural: hazelnut oil can rise to the surface while the jar sits. Stir the spread thoroughly from the bottom with a clean spoon to bring it back together.
Yes, unsweetened hazelnut spread with cocoa works in brownies, cookies, and other baked goods. Account for the fat it adds, and adjust the recipe’s sweetener if you want a sweeter result.
Not automatically. Although it has no added sugar, unsweetened hazelnut spread with cocoa still contains carbohydrates, so whether it fits a keto eating plan depends on your serving and daily carbohydrate limit.
Pair unsweetened hazelnut spread with cocoa with sliced banana, dates, or a drizzle of honey for a sweeter taste. You can also stir a preferred sweetener into a portion rather than sweetening the whole jar.
It may fit into a diabetes meal plan, but having no added sugar does not make it carbohydrate-free. The amount eaten and the rest of the meal matter, so discuss portions with your clinician or dietitian if you need individual guidance.
