Bottega Crema di Cioccolato Gianduia Fondente is an Italian chocolate and hazelnut cream liqueur that combines Italy’s rich tradition of patisserie with Bottega’s expertise. The focus is on carefully selected ingredients, including Sicilian hazelnut paste made from hazelnuts roasted to varying degrees, as well as high-quality cocoa from Santo Domingo. The different degrees of roasting are designed to bring out the full aromatic potential of the hazelnuts, whilst the cocoa contributes the fruity and floral nuances of high-quality dark chocolate. The recipe has been specifically balanced to achieve a harmonious blend of hazelnut and cocoa, offering a particularly dark and intense interpretation of the classic Italian gianduia flavour.


With an ABV of 17% and a volume of 0.5 l, Bottega Gianduia Fondente Cream Liqueur is moderately sweet and comparatively mild in terms of alcohol content. A distinctive feature of the recipe is the deliberate omission of milk and milk derivatives, making this Bottega cream liqueur vegan. Despite its creamy, velvety texture, the characteristic flavour is thus achieved without the use of traditional dairy ingredients. The combination of dark chocolate, roasted Sicilian hazelnuts and Santo Domingo cocoa gives this interpretation of gianduia its distinctive character. In this way, Bottega combines traditional Italian confectionery inspiration with modern liqueur production, creating a versatile speciality suitable for desserts, digestifs and cocktails.
