World Nutella Day Celebrates 5th Anniversary!
Thousands of bloggers and fans worldwide celebrate Italy's edible treasure with online and offline tributes for the 5th anniversary of World Nutella Day on February 5, 2011. Milan, Italy January 25, 2011 - On February 5, 2011, thousands of fans around the world will once again celebrate their love for one of Italy's national, edible treasures: Nutella.
This year's event will be the 5th annual World Nutella Day honoring the chocolate-hazelnut spread; American writers in Italy Sara Rosso and Michelle Fabio began the holiday in 2007 to encourage Nutella enthusiasts worldwide to enjoy and get creative with Nutella. Although many Italian and other European children fall in love with Nutella from an early
age, the spread is just really hitting English-speaking markets and around the world; no
matter how old you are the first time you try Nutella, though, the excitement is palpable
and memorable. World Nutella Day is the perfect day for adults everywhere to experience a second childhood and discover Nutella.
Online tributes to the sweet treat in previous years have included homemade recipes,
picture collages, and even haikus. Also at NutellaDay.com, the online home of the event,
fans can find the top collection of Nutella recipes -- over 500 ways to enjoy Nutella in
everything from cookies and cupcakes to drinks and pizza as well as Nutella substitute
recipes for those who would like to make their own homemade version.
"Thanks to World Nutella Day, we've seen a sharp increase in Nutella's buzz online, and it's
all fan-driven! Google's search volume for Nutella has more than doubled in the past 5
years, and there was no Nutella recipe search traffic before World Nutella Day. Now we're
the #1 source of Nutella recipes on the web," said co-host Sara Rosso.
This year, hosts Sara and Michelle have several messages about real live World Nutella Day
parties being organized by Nutella Day fans all over the world; more suggestions on how
you can celebrate wherever you are can be found at NutellaDay.com.
"Although Nutella execs have long positioned the spread as a breakfast food, World Nutella
Day fans have made clear that one of life's sweetest pleasures is discovering new ways to
incorporate Nutella into old recipes -- and we're here to encourage that," adds co-host
Michelle Fabio.
