Piedmontese cremino - authentic souvenir of Turin€6–€25

Piedmontese cremino in Turin

The cremino is a small cube-shaped chocolate traditionally composed of three layers: two of hazelnut gianduia and a lighter central layer, often made with hazelnut or almond cream. The texture is soft and velvety, designed to melt slowly in the mouth. It is one of the symbolic products of Turin’s chocolate-making tradition, known for its use of Piedmontese hazelnuts and refined cocoa craftsmanship. Today it is produced both by historic artisan chocolatiers and by industrial brands, while maintaining a very recognizable shape and structure.
