Description

This is part of our Italian Chocolates & Confectionery Collection.

The original style of Gianduiotti, with dark chocolate and Nocciola Piemonte IGP hazelnuts

Inspired by the original style of Gianduiotti, these rich Fondenti combine dark chocolate with finely ground Nocciola Piemonte IGP hazelnuts for a deeper, more intense expression of Piemonte’s famous chocolate speciality.

Made near Turin by a family chocolatier whose history dates back to 1885, the hazelnuts are finely ground directly into the chocolate, creating the exceptionally smooth, melting texture that defines traditional Gianduja.

Dark and Indulgent Italian Chocolate

The darker chocolate brings greater cocoa depth while allowing the roasted hazelnut flavour to remain at the heart of every piece. Individually wrapped in their distinctive shape, they are perfect after dinner, alongside an espresso or as an indulgent Italian chocolate gift.

Piemonte

Piemonte (or Piedmont) is the second largest region of Italy, found in the north west of the country. Its largest city and the original capital of Italy is Turin, the bustling business and culture hub of northern Italy. Turin is filled with a mixture of 16th and 18th century renaissance, baroque and neo classical architecture. More up-to-date, it is also home to Juventus FC, one of Italy’s best football teams.

Moving away from the cities, Piedmont is known for its connection to the Alps. Almost half of the region is covered by mountains, making it one of Italy’s top skiing destinations. The geography of the region generates great agricultural farm land and it is best known for its grapes and wine production. Barolo and Barbaresco red wines are made from the Nebbiolo grape, and the sparkling Asti Spumante comes from the Moscato grape.

Besides wine, the region also produces a vast amount of Italian risotto rice. Arborio, Carnaroli and 11 other varieties of rice are grown in paddy fields, irrigated by river water.
