Modica IGP hazelnut chocolate bar
One of the great classics is the combination of chocolate and hazelnut, which, in the Modica bar, acquires new tones of flavor and texture. The crunchy hazelnut granules meet the graininess of raw chocolate: the result is a fusion between the crunchy and the soft taste that surprises and delights the palate. This bar makes the moment of tea and coffee unforgettable, but also a simple snack.
Cocoa mass (min 50%), cane sugar, hazelnut granules (6%).
The hazelnut is often referred to as "the queen of nuts" in many culinary cultures. This is because it not only has a rich and versatile flavor but has also been cultivated and appreciated since ancient times. Hazelnuts were considered a symbol of wisdom and knowledge in Greek and Roman mythology.
