YYC Hot Chocolate Fest

Gianduia Cioccolato

This hot chocolate is inspired by one of Italy’s most comforting flavor pairings: hazelnut and chocolate. When cocoa was once hard to find, hazelnuts stepped in, and together they created something richer. That simple moment became something called gianduia.

Our Gianduia Cioccolato is our take on that story. A sweet, cozy hot chocolate, drizzled with Nutella, topped with soft whipped cream, a sprinkle of hazelnut crumble, and served with a bombolino filled with Nutella, because some days deserve a little extra.

With Italy stepping into the spotlight for the Olympic Games, this drink is our small nod to our country’s way of doing things: passion, care, and joy in the details.
