Hazelnut Spread

from Butter

Luscious and satin-smooth, Butter's Hazelnut Spread boasts a thick texture that feels close to ganache.

There are a few items in my pantry that I can eat any time of day, and Nutella happens to be one of them. When I saw Butter had a rosin-infused Hazelnut Spread, I knew it was something I had to try. At 100 milligrams per jar, the opportunities — on toast for breakfast, on banana slices for a snack or just on its own at dinner — had me excited for a flexible, indulgent edible.

With doses of 5mg per teaspoon, this may not be ideal for lower-tolerance consumers who find themselves wanting more. For me, piling a healthy spoonful of about 25mg across slices of pineapple was a standout dessert that sent me giggling.

Perfect for a preparty canape or sweet treat when I need a pick-me-up, I felt a serious mood boost that could make even the most dour night feel jovial. The come-up felt smooth and decisive before tipping quickly into a euphoric, happy headspace that made everything around me a little funnier.

What surprised me most about the rosin-infused hazelnut spread was the rich flavor. There was a distinct cocoa note that evoked a slightly more adult treat. It lacked any hint of herbal flavor associated with Cannabis infusions or the bitterness that can come from rosin.

Butter’s Hazelnut Spread was luscious and satin-smooth, with a thick texture that felt close to ganache. As soon as it engulfed my tongue, the flavor landed with a balanced sweetness that never became cloying. This is a confectionery treat through and through.
