About Chocolate-flavored hazelnut spread
Chocolate-flavored hazelnut spread is the creamy, spoonable paste — Nutella is the best-known brand — made from sugar, palm oil, hazelnuts and cocoa. It is marketed as a breakfast spread, but its makeup is closer to that of a soft candy: sugar is the leading ingredient, and the result is rich, sweet and very energy-dense.
Per 100 grams it carries about 541 calories, with roughly 62 grams of carbohydrate, around 54 grams of it sugar, and about 30 grams of fat. The striking detail is that almost all of that fat — about 28 of the 30 grams — is saturated, reflecting the palm oil it is built on. The hazelnuts and cocoa do contribute a little fiber, iron and potassium. A typical 2-tablespoon serving of about 37 grams comes to roughly 200 calories and 20 grams of sugar.
Spread thinly it is a modest topping; spread generously it adds up quickly, since just two tablespoons can deliver close to half a day's added sugar. It is best thought of as a dessert-style spread rather than a nut butter, and a little goes a long way.
