Gianduiotti Traditional Tin - Piedmont Hazelnut Chocolates 115g

Barbero have been making gianduiotti in Asti since 1883, and these are the classic ones: a soft ingot of gianduja - Piedmont PGI hazelnut paste at 25%, blended into dark and milk chocolate - wrapped in gold foil and packed into a red metal tin. Gianduja was invented in Turin when the Napoleonic blockade made cocoa scarce and local chocolatiers eked it out with the hazelnuts growing in the hills behind the city; what began as a substitute outlived the shortage. The texture is the point. A gianduiotto should not snap like a bar but give way and melt almost at once, leaving roasted hazelnut behind it. Serve them with espresso at the end of a meal, or leave the open tin on the table over Christmas. The tin means it needs no wrapping to be a present. 115g.
