The chocolate and hazelnut spread, first launched by Italian confectionary maker Fererro in the 1960s – is now a staple in millions of kitchens, smeared on toast, spooned over pancakes and, for some, eaten straight from the jar. Globally, more than 365,000 tonnes are sold annually across 160 countries – enough to fill nearly 150 Olympic-sized swimming pools.
