Milka Nussini Hasselnuss

This Milka Nussini Hasselnuss bar was a gift from my friend Neil, of Dutch ex-pat fame. I don’t know what Nussini means, but I’m taking an educated guess that Hasselnuss means hazelnut.

The Nussini bars were wafer sandwiches topped with hazelnut bits and covered in chocolate. The wafers were quite light and airy, an absolute delight to crunch through.

The hazelnuts added a great roasted nuttiness through the bits of actual nut, and I think they may have been hidden in the cream in the wafer sandwich cookie as well.

Finally, the chocolate was unobtrusively mild and nicely tied the hazelnut and wafer cookie together. This was a light and wonderfully well-balanced bar that was a pleasure to crunch through. An OM.
