World Nutella Day...Mark your calendar!

On February 5th, thousands of fans around the world will once again celebrate their love for one of Italy's national, edible treasures: Nutella. While I am not a huge fan of the nutty chocolate goo, Steve is and so we will celebrate.

Although many Italian and other European children fall in love with Nutella from an early age, the spread is just really hitting English-speaking markets and around the world; no matter how old you are the first time you try Nutella, though, the excitement is palpable and memorable. World Nutella Day is the perfect day for adults everywhere to experience a second childhood and discover Nutella.

Online tributes to the sweet treat in previous years have included homemade recipes, picture collages, and even haiku. Also at http://www.nutelladay.com/, the online home of the event, fans can find the top collection of Nutella recipes — over 500 ways to enjoy Nutella in everything from cookies and cupcakes to drinks and pizza as well as Nutella substitute recipes for those who would like to make their own homemade version.

Sara Rosso has an amazing blog that I found and enjoy.  If you would like to know how to have a proper Nutella party or discover more about Italy, you should read http://www.msadventuresinitaly.com/blog/
Buon appetito!


"Although Nutella execs have long positioned the spread
as a breakfast food, World Nutella Day fans have made clear
 that one of life's sweetest pleasures is discovering new ways
to incorporate Nutella into old recipes —
and we're here to encourage that," adds co-host Michelle Fabio.

That is one HUGE jar of Nutella you're holding ! Should last a couple of years. Ha.
All the stores, including Walmart, are now carrying it too. Plus new recipes on the internet.
Should be a fun weekend for you...........
