Made with care by a second-generation master chocolatier, this beautiful collection of soft gianduja chocolates is a festive taste of the Piedmont region. Known as the chocolate capital of Italy, Piedmont is home to a number of the country’s top chocolate artisans—and these are made by the very best. They’re packaged especially for Giadzy in a vibrant red-and-gold cube, perfect for gift-giving or setting out to tempt holiday company. These Tourinot come in two flavors: pure chocolate-and-hazelnut Maximo and the classic milk chocolate blend.

There’s no sweet more characteristically Piedmontese than gianduja. It was created out of necessity in the early 1800s, when Napoleon blocked all French allies—including Italy—from trading goods with the British. This restriction of British supplies included cocoa, which forced Italian chocolatiers to get a bit creative to stretch their supply. They turned to an ingredient they had in abundance: the plump, flavorful hazelnuts that grow in the Langhe mountains, just south of Turin. The chocolate masters created a spread of roughly 70% cocoa and 30% hazelnut paste, and gianduja was born! Today, Turin is famous for this delicious chocolate innovation.

Aside from the chocolate, which is carefully selected from Central and South America, every ingredient in these chocolates is purely Italian. The plump, sweet hazelnuts are sourced directly from local Piedmont farmers, the milk comes from Piedmontese dairy farmers, and even the sugar is from Italian beets. Raw cacao beans are roasted and processed in a state-of-the-art Italian facility. Every step of the chocolate-making process is managed by hand to ensure the highest quality in every bite.
