Health Grade

Hazelnut Spread is a sweet, creamy spread most commonly used on bread, toast, pancakes, waffles, and pastries. It is especially popular as a dessert-style topping or filling, with a rich chocolate-nut flavor that makes it feel more like a treat than a basic pantry staple. Nutrition-wise, Hazelnut Spread is energy-dense and contains mostly fat and carbohydrates, including 56.3g of sugar per 100 g. It also provides some vitamin E, copper, and a bit of protein, though the overall balance is driven more by added sugar and fat than by fiber or protein. From a health perspective, it is best enjoyed in moderation. It can fit into a balanced diet as an occasional spread, but it is not as nutritious as plain nut butters with no added sugar. Show more
