About Caffarel
Caffarel is a historic Italian chocolatier from Turin, famous for inventing Gianduia chocolate in 1865. This revolutionary combination of chocolate and Piedmont hazelnuts created a new confectionery category that would later inspire countless imitations, including Nutella. The Caffarel Gianduia 1865 range represents this original invention in its purest form. Founded in 1826, Caffarel has nearly 200 years of chocolate-making heritage. The brand's signature Gianduia chocolates use premium Piedmont hazelnuts (Nocciola Piemonte IGP) - the finest hazelnut variety in the world - combined with carefully selected cocoa to create an intensely smooth, nutty chocolate experience. The Caffarel range includes Gianduia 1865 chocolates in Classic, Dark and Assorted varieties, featuring the distinctive triangular wrapper. The Premium Gianduia Spread contains 40% hazelnuts - significantly more than most commercial spreads - delivering an authentically rich hazelnut-chocolate flavour for spreading on bread, pancakes or using in baking. As part of the Lindt & Sprüngli group, Caffarel combines artisanal Italian tradition with Swiss precision, maintaining the heritage recipes while ensuring consistent quality. The brand represents the pinnacle of Italian chocolate craftsmanship.
