'{{Distinguish|Gnutella}} {{Refimprove|date=April 2010}} '''Nutella''' ({{IPA-it|nuˈtɛlla}}; {{IPA-en|nʌˈtɛlə|lang}}) is the [[brand]] name of a [[hazelnut]]-based<ref>http://www.brandrepublic.com/News/732842/Nutella-hands-4m-job-Krow-ahead-relaunch/</ref> sweet [[Spread (food)|spread]] registered by the [[Italy|Italian]] company [[Ferrero SpA|Ferrero]] at the end of 1963. The recipe was developed from an earlier Ferrero spread released in 1949. Nutella is sold in over 75 countries.<ref>http://www.nutellausa.com/history3.htm</ref> [[File:Nutella-2006.JPG|thumb|250px|Nutella with Biscuit and Tea]] ==History== [[Gianduja (chocolate)|Gianduja]] is a type of chocolate analogue containing approximately 50% [[almond]] and [[hazelnut]] juice. It was developed in [[Piedmont, Italy|Piedmont]], Italy, after taxes on [[cocoa bean]]s hindered the diffusion of conventional chocolate. Pietro Ferrero, who owned a patisserie in [[Alba (CN)|Alba]], in the [[Langhe]] district of Piedmont, an area known for the production of hazelnuts, sold an initial batch of {{convert|300|kg|lb}} of "''Pasta Gianduja''" in 1946. This was originally a solid block, but in 1949, Pietro started to sell a creamy version in 1951 as "''Supercrema''". In 1963, Pietro's son Michele revamped ''Supercrema'' with the intention of marketing it across [[Europe]]. Its composition was modified and it was renamed "Nutella". The first jar of Nutella left the Ferrero factory in Alba on 20 April 1964. The product was an instant success and remains widely popular. The estimated Italian production of Nutella averages 179,000 tons per year.{{Citation needed|date=February 2007}} ==Composition== Nutella is a modified form of [[Gianduja (chocolate)|gianduja]]. The exact recipe is a secret closely guarded by [[Ferrero SpA|Ferrero]]. According to the product label, the main ingredients of Nutella are [[sugar]] and [[vegetable oils]] (most of which is [[palm oil]]<ref>http://www.greenpeace.org/international/en/news/features/nutella-football-ferrero-280508/</ref>), followed by [[hazelnut]], [[cocoa solids]] and [[skimmed milk]], which together are at most 29% of the ingredients. Nutella is marketed as "hazelnut cream" in many countries. Under Italian law, it cannot be labeled as a chocolate cream, as it does not meet minimum cocoa solids concentration criteria. About half of the calories in Nutella come from fat (11&nbsp;g in a 37&nbsp;g serving, or 99 kcal out of 200 kcal) and about 40% of the calories come from sugar (20&nbsp;g, 80 kcal).<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.nutritiondata.com/facts-C00001-01c21Pe.html | title=Nutrition Facts and Analysis for Chocolate-flavored hazelnut spread | publisher=NutritionaData | accessdate=2008-11-09}}</ref> '''Listed ingredients''' {| class="wikitable sortable" !

The initiative is aimed at fighting obesity and giving consumers more informed choices. [[Francesco Paolo Fulci]], a vice president at [[Ferrero SpA]] and former diplomat started a "Hands off Nutella" committee, supported by the governor of Piedmont. The cabinet minister for EU affairs warned against "nutritionist fundamentalism". === Nutrition facts === =====Per 13 oz Jar (371&nbsp;g) (USA & Canada Product)===== *[[Calories]] 1950&nbsp;kcal *[[Fat]] 110&nbsp;g **Saturated 35&nbsp;g **Trans 0&nbsp;g *[[Cholesterol]] 0&nbsp;mg *[[Sodium]] 150&nbsp;mg *[[Carbohydrate]] 220&nbsp;g **[[Dietary fiber|Fiber]] 10&nbsp;g **Sugars 210&nbsp;g *[[Protein]] 30&nbsp;g ===== Per 100g (UK product) ===== *15g serving size *Energy 2215 kJ *Protein 6.8 g *Carbohydrates 56 g of which Sugars 55 g *[[Fat]] 31 g of which: **Saturates 10.3 g **Mono-unsaturates 17.3 g **Polyunsaturates 3.4 g *[[Dietary fiber|Fibre]] 4 g *[[Sodium]] 34&nbsp;mg *Vitamins: **E 66&nbsp;mg **B12 0.54&nbsp;ug *Calcium 120&nbsp;mg *Phosphorus 172&nbsp;mg *Magnesium 70&nbsp;mg ===== Per 100g (AUST product) ===== *20g serving size *Energy 2175kJ *Protein 7.3g *Fat ** Total 30.7g ** Saturated 10.0g *Carbohydrate ** Total 54.7g ** Sugars 54.4g *Sodium 33&nbsp;mg ===== Per 100g (Scandinavian product) ===== *15g serving size *Energy 2227 kJ/533 kcal *Protein 6.9g *Fat ** Total 31g ** Saturated 9.9g *Carbohydrate ** Total 56.6g ** Sugars 55.4g *Dietary fiber 3.4g *Sodium 40&nbsp;mg ==Containers== Nutella is marketed in a variety of packages: its typical containers have always been made of [[glass]], though [[plastic]] containers are commonly used in the [[United States|USA]], Canada, [[Mexico]] and [[Australia]]. Some of the most popular glass containers are quite small, the size of a standard water glass; they can be used as normal table glasses once the product has been consumed. They have a white lid on the top that is disposed of when the product is finished. ==References== {{Reflist}} ==Further reading== * Rosenblum, Mort.
