Artisana Organics Hazelnut Cacao Spread, 8 oz | No Palm Oil, Sweetened with Coconut Sugar

This is everything you want Nutella to taste like. Pronounced hazelnut flavor, good quality cocoa, and just enough sweetness to taste like you’re halfway to making a very fancy dessert. I haven’t even done anything with it yet because it’s so satisfying to just eat by the spoonful. This is going to be a problematic habit in the best way. There are no emulsifiers or filler ingredients, so of course you need to stir it, just like with natural peanut butter. It’s very smooth but there is a very fine graininess to it (but it’s not unpleasant). I don’t eat a lot of salt so it tastes strong to me, but if you’re someone who eats a lot of salt you may want to sprinkle a little sea salt on this… I suspect the reviewer who couldn’t taste the hazelnut either didn’t properly mix it or they’re used to a bunch of salt on everything and their palate struggles to pick up flavors without it. Mine was delivered from Whole Foods and the container was glass; I’ve only ever seen products from this brand come in glass, so maybe the person complaining about plastic is either mistaken or they ship online orders in plastic due to the risk of breakage (but I’ve ordered their cashew butter online before and it came in glass).

Price is high but not at all outrageous compared to other more "gourmet" hazelnut spreads. It actually tastes like hazelnuts and chocolate, not pure sugar. And you do have to stir it, because just like natural peanut butter it is free of palm oil (it says this on the container, why are people complaining). Of course this isn't a health food, but being palm oil free makes it much better for you than something like Nutella. I will say I'm not the biggest fan of the slightly gritty texture and not sure why they had to use coconut sugar (I'm assuming that's what makes it gritty).

I LOVEEEEEEEE THISSSSSSS HAZELNUT SPREAD! 🍫 I can’t tell you how good, creamy, and delicious this is 🥹. It totally worth it. Ingredients are top and it’s better than Nutella to me. The sweetness it’s not too much. It’s the perfect balance with dark chocolate.

I ordered this product a month ago in the 8 oz jar(glass) as I wasn’t sure I’d like it. I ended liking it well enough to order again in the larger jar 9.5oz. I received my so called 9.5 oz jar(plastic) visibly smaller but marked 9.5 oz. Probably will not order from them again. See picture 9.5 oz marked jar is the one on the right left is marked 8 oz.

It came in a glass jar which I liked. When I opened it the product was separated from the oil so it did need to be mixed and it’s a little grainy for my liking but the cacao powder is good quality. I added some organic extra virgin coconut oil to smooth out the texture and it’s honestly really tasty now. I would recommend mixing and adding coconut oil for a smoother texture.

THIS STUFF IS THE MOST DELCIOUS (HEALTHY?!) HAZELNUT SPREAD I’VE EVER TASTED. WOW. No words… Okay, maybe a few! I could’ve eaten the whole jar in one sitting had I not of stopped myself. It is seriously divine tasting, and I’ve tried many hazelnut spreads. This one just has this luxury feel, smooth and silky, rich with just the right amount of sweetness and flavor. I understand the price, it’s definitely more expensive but absolutely worth it if you like a good quality indulgence!!! I can’t believe I’ve been eyeing this product up for literal years and only now trying it, don’t hesitate to buy this- you’ll thank yourself later

Tastes like sugar with a little cocoa added….. perhaps roasting the nuts before you grind them would impart more nuttiness, I expected more flavor.

Excelente sabor, es delicioso.
