Nutella makers Ferrero on
Thursday assured consumers that the recipe for the famed
hazelnut-flavoured chocolate spread had changed after a German
consumer association raised a social-media storm, stressing that
in August a small amount of whey had been replaced with an
equivalent amount of powdered skimmed milk. "We can reassure all
Nutella fans," the Turin-based candy-maker told ANSA, "that its
recipe, unique and delicious, remains what we know and love,
with the same high-quality criteria." It said "in Italy, the
content of hazelnuts, cocoa, and sugar remains unchanged. In
August we restricted ourselves to replacing whey with an
equivalent amount of powdered skimmed milk, (2.1 grammes per
100)".
