This Muzzi pistachio and hazelnut spread has been the joy of my last month and the bane of my workplace healthy eating challenge. I got this jar at a gourmet cheese and deli, along with the Muzzi coffee spread. The Muzzi website is only in Italian and German and the page of the other spreads is too pixellated to read. Probably better I don’t know what other flavours with which they would taunt me (the spreads are under Cioccolato).

Blogger Rebecca Winke of Umbria on the Blog actually visited the factory in Foligno, Umbria early last month and even reported on the hazelnut spread. Signora Loredana sounds cool.
