Nocciolata is an organic and 100% natural product. The presence of lumps is related to the fats used in the preparation of our spreadable cream, sunflower oil and cocoa butter, natural fats that are not chemically modified, which tend to maintain their natural physical properties. In the particular case of cocoa butter, we are talking about an unrefined fat that at low temperatures tends to return to its natural physical state, initially forming crystals, until it reaches a solid state and thus creates “lumps”. This crystallisation is a completely natural process that does not affect the quality of the product; in fact, the lumps melt easily (by keeping the jar at room temperature, around 24-25°C, and stirring the product a little).
As stated on the label, precisely because of its natural characteristics, the product should be stored in the fridge after opening and consumed within a short time. The consumption period is closely linked to the method of storage; in particular, possible "contamination" with other foods (e.g. bread crumbs) and incorrect temperature can accelerate the product’s degradation process.
