Ferrero. Same who make Nutella and Ferrero Rocher! Yum (but no longer eat since I went Vegan).
Nutella spread, in its earliest form, was created in the 1940s by Mr. Pietro Ferrero, a pastry maker and founder of the Ferrero company (Italy). At the time, there was very little chocolate because cocoa was in short supply due to World War II rationing. So Mr. Ferrero used hazelnuts, which are plentiful in the Piedmont region of Italy (northwest), to extend the chocolate supply
From http://www.nutellausa.com/history.htm "Nutella®, in its original form, was first created in the 1940s by Mr. Pietro Ferrero, a pastry maker and founder of the Ferrero company. At the time, cocoa was in short supply because of rationing due to World War II, so chocolate was very limited. So Mr. Ferrero used hazelnuts ... to extend the chocolate supply."
ferrero rocher is a lovely chocolate that has a nutty outside and inside there is nutella and a nut. they are lovely they are a delicious milk chocolate with nuts on the outside and when you bite a wafer crunch leads to a goowy nutella and nut sandwich they are to die for
OLD ANSWER [Nutella is made in Australia] Not quite correct: Nutella is made by Ferrero (the same company that makes Rocher chocolates) and it's an Italian product and always has been. It is entirely possible that Ferrero has a branch office and production facility in Australia as it does in many other countries. That's a pretty common situation with most major products because it's too costly to always import things. The jar you buy in Australia made be made in Australia, but it's an Italian product.
The earliest version of the hazelnut spread was created by Pietro Ferrero in the 1940s when there was a shortage of chocolate due to rationing during World War II. Hazelnuts were readily available in the Piedmont region of Italy and he employed the spread to extend the chocolate supply he used to make pastries.
The company on the side of the jar, forgot the name. It's in Italia, I think. Don't hate on my answer because it's surely better than the last.
A Ferrero Chocolate Box costs between $5 and $30. You can purchase Ferrero Chocolate Boxes online from stores such as Walgreens or from retailers such as Amazon.
