After WWII, there were not
enough cocoa supplies in Italy. So a pastry maker Pietro Ferrero
created his concoction made from hazelnuts, sugar, and just a
little bit of cocoa that was later transformed into Nutella, by
his son.
It began as a solid
block called pasta gianduja which could be sliced and served on
bread, but later evolved into a spreadable version called
Supercrema. The Nutella name came about during 1964
as a result of combining the English word ‘nut’ and the
Latin suffix for sweet – ‘ella’.

Nutella
Many
people use Nutella as an alternative to peanut butter. Its main
ingredient is sugar, followed by palm oil, then hazelnuts. The label says that jars contain "over 50
hazelnuts per 13 oz. jar."
It is manufactured by the Italian company Ferrero that was first introduced in 1964, although its first iteration dates to 1946. It was originally sold as a solid block, but Ferrero started to sell a creamy version during 1951. Its composition was again modified and it was renamed Nutella in 1964.
Ads highlight the fact that Nutella has no artificial colors or preservatives and it contains, sugar, modified palm oil, and hazelnut, followed by cocoa solids, skimmed milk powder, whey powder, lecithin, and vanillin flavor. In the US, it also contains soy products.
According to its nutritional label, Nutella contains 58% of processed sugar by weight and 10.4 percent of saturated fat. A two-tablespoon (37 gram) serving of Nutella contains 200 calories including 99 calories from 11 grams of fat (3.5g of which are saturated) and 80 calories from 21 grams of sugar. The spread also contains 15 mg of sodium and 2g of protein per serving.
Incidentally, Nutella is marketed as "hazelnut cream" in many countries.

Nutella Facts
Nutella is a great tasting spread. The
chocolaty nut spread was thought of as a great substitute for
peanut butter, but a recent study found out it is not much
different.
One tablespoon of Nutella contains 100 calories, 6 grams of fat, and 11 grams of sugar. One tablespoon of peanut butter has 94 calories, 8 grams of fat, 1.48 grams sugar. Generic cake frosting has 75 calories, 3 grams of fat, and 7.5 grams of sugar.
