Sprinkles-Covered Chocolate Hazelnut Candies - "Cri Cri"

Born in the picturesque Langhe hills of Piemonte, Cri Cri is a beloved confection featuring a whole roasted hazelnut coated in rich dark chocolate and crunchy sugar sprinkles. Dating back to the late 19th century, it has become a cherished treat in Turin. Legend tells of Paolo and Cristina, a young couple whose sweet exchanges at a pastry shop inspired its name. Each day, the shop assistant would ask, “Cri?” and Paolo would lovingly reply, “Cri!”—a tradition that gave rise to the name of this iconic praline. With its delightful crunch and rich chocolate flavor, Cri Cri is a timeless indulgence for all!
