I should love the other spread. After all it was created in the same province, Piedmonte where my great grandparents came from however Nocciolata has captured my heart. It is a smooth, creamy blend of cocoa and hazelnut.each flavor perfectly married to the other. It is yummy on sliced strawberries, tasty on sliced bananas. Since I'm on a microwave bread pudding kick right now I a going to add a couple of dollops to the recipe or drizzle it over the finished dish. Nocciolata is also good on pancakes and waffles and makes a great addition to any brunch. A perfect breakfast , though is a well made croissant split and thickly slathered with it.Rigoni Asiago recommends making a cake roll with it or a mug cake (another recipe on my must bake list)it would also make a yummy filling for homemade shortbread or orange shortbread sandwich cookies too.
Rigoni di Asiago Nocciolata is the perfect spread.It adds to anything, from fruits to croissants. Try it and taste the perfect blend of hazelnuts married to chocolate. It truly is a harmonious blend of flavors.
