Funny how those taste preferences are common for all of the countries behind the iron curtain. And somehow those preferences can be roughly summarized with less cocoa and less hazelnuts. Which are by coincidence the expensive ingredients.
- jeroenhd 1y agoThe difference between American and European Nutella seems to have been documented in a lot of detail, but I can't find any sources on the differences within Europe. I have found videos about the differences between German and French Nutella, and French and Italian Nutella, but nothing more than that. I think a combination of bad cocoa harvest and previously a bad hazelnut harvest have altered recipes globally to be more sugar and fat and even less cocoa and hazelnut, but it's hard to find any recent comparisons. Maybe you have a link? I don't speak any languages from behind the Iron Curtain where the impact is probably the most obvious, so I would appreciate a good link.
