A Brief History of Puff Pastry and Nutella

Puff pastry is a classic in the world of baking, originating in France as pâte feuilletée. Known for its layered, flaky structure, puff pastry is incredibly versatile, lending itself to both savory and sweet recipes. Nutella, on the other hand, has a rich history rooted in Italian cuisine. Created in the 1940s as an alternative to chocolate, Nutella combines hazelnuts and cocoa for a smooth, creamy spread that quickly became a worldwide favorite. Together, puff pastry and Nutella make a match that’s hard to beat, blending French elegance with Italian indulgence.
