I.G.P Piedmont Hazelnuts and Gianduia, back from the Napoleon era

The history of Pidmont Hazelnut is closely linked to Gianduia or Gianduja, the precious and well-known mixture of cocoa and hazelnuts. The origin of Gianduia is attributed to the Turin confectioners which since 1800 could not buy anymore cocoa if not at very high prices. This was due the commercial block imposed by Napoleon on imports of products from England. The confectioners began, as a less expensive alternative, to substituting part of the cocoa with the Tonda Gentile Delle Langhe Hazelnut, thus inventing a new mixture of cocoa and hazelnuts that soon became well recognized for its intense but at the same time delicate flavor and took the name of Gianduia, just like the popular Turin carnival mask.
