Finetti

After raving about Ferrero Rocher & its Nutella brand of premium hazelnut spreads (this is the original hazelnut-cocoa creation), I was quite pleased to find a less expensive, but similar tasting version in Finetti, a hazelnut spread which I bought in Unimart.  Imagine, the 1 kilo tub I got was priced at slightly less than P200, and this would last us for several weeks!  I understand that this brand is made by Chipita, a Greek conglomerate that has a wide market footprint in over 35 countries, including the Philippines.  The Finetti brand is the market leader in both Romania and Bulgaria, and has consistently gained ground in the Philippine market due to its very competitive pricing structure.  I was quite impressed with both the taste and consistency of the product, and this closely resembles that of the original creation.  Very good for us, especially Monique who just loves spreading this over her monay and hot pan de sal!

Finetti's packaging isn't nice though. the plastic cover breaks easily and you end up having to put it in the ref to avoid ants and pests.

Try Nusica - it's plain chocolate not hazelnut but the creamy consistency makes it easy to spread - yummy when thick! No need to melt a hershey's kiss in pandesal. :)
