Yes, this is exactly what you think it is- a deliciously decadent hazelnut and cocoa spread that is both organic and vegan, and is all that much better than that other version you’ve heard of.
Rigoni di Asiago (which may just be my favorite company ever, based solely on this 9.5oz jar of heaven) has created Nocciolata, an organic Hazelnut & Cocoa Spread that is all kinds of wonderful:
- All ingredients farmed with no environmental pollution
- No palm oil or trans fats
- No artificial aromas or colors
- No artificial flavors
- Vegan certified
- Gluten-free certified
- Dairy free
- GMO-free certified
And they’re going to share a bottle with one of you!
The first thing I did when I received my bottle in the mail was to bake a loaf of zucchini bread (recipe coming soon) and slather it on:
As I’ve said before, I’m not the biggest fan of chocolate, yet I loved this spread! It’s so creamy and mild and not overwhelming at all. I’ve been eating it straight out of the bottle with a spoon, although I limit myself to small tastes, because otherwise I’d have none left.
I also used it on that ice cream pie a while back… And I’m pretty sure it would be delicious on anything.
So! Go ahead and enter (make sure you get as many entries as possible!) and check back soon for that zucchini bread recipe. And in case you don’t win the giveaway, check out the huge number of grocery stores it’s also available in!
