World Nutella Day
Why it matters
CELEBRATE NUTELLA
Join us in celebrating the creamy goodness of Nutella—an indulgence loved by many around the world.
THE STORY
World Nutella Day was first celebrated in 2007, initiated by an American blogger named Sara Rosso. Her passion for the iconic hazelnut spread inspired her to create a day dedicated to it, which has since grown into a global celebration. Each year, fans of Nutella share their recipes, creations, and love for the spread across social media platforms.
Nutella’s origins date back to the 1940s in Piedmont, Italy, where it was first developed as a way to stretch cocoa supplies during wartime. The innovative spread, made from hazelnuts, sugar, and cocoa, quickly gained popularity. Today, Nutella is not just a spread but a cultural phenomenon, inspiring countless recipes from breakfast to dessert.
On World Nutella Day, people around the world indulge in delicious recipes that feature Nutella. From pancakes and waffles to cakes and cookies, the possibilities are endless. Many home bakers take this opportunity to showcase their creativity, sharing photos and recipes online, fostering a sense of community among Nutella lovers.
As the day approaches, various events and promotions pop up, from Nutella-themed cooking classes to special menu items at local cafés. It’s a time for fans to come together, celebrate their shared love for Nutella, and enjoy the simple pleasure of this delightful treat.
Nutella is not just a spread; it's a way of life.
