The History of World Nutella Day

World Nutella Day was created in 2007 when Sara Rosso, an American blogger living in Italy, thought that there were many days in the year but no day set aside to appreciate Nutella. Why not?

And World Nutella Day was born.

Sara recruited Shelley from At Home in Rome to be her partner in crime for World Nutella Day 2007. In 2008 and 2009, Sara has been joined by Michelle from Bleeding Espresso as we spread World Nutella Day love!
