In early February every year, sweet-toothed souls the world over celebrate 'World Nutella Day'. The day of dessert eating is just around the corner once again — and it's safe to say Preston Market has your feasting well and truly sorted.
The northside precinct is transforming into a treasure trove of chocolatey and hazelnuty delights for the occasion on Sunday, February 9, as a stack of its traders get into the spirit with a range of special offers, free tastings and one-off Nutella dishes.
Swing by Local Pantry & Co to sample a free tasting of Pana Organic's hazelnut and chocolate spread, then road-test some Nutella croissants at both Publique Bakery and Dragisha & Nikola Bakery. Or head to Rustic Bean where you can snag a free chocolate croissant with any coffee purchase.
Meanwhile, Les Crepes Gourmandes will be stacking Nutella pancakes and waffles, and Cannoeleria will be piping Nutella into its famed cannoli for the day. Sweet-toothed vegans will also be in excellent hands, with Super Raw's vegan Nutella smoothie bowls and raw vegan Nutella treats.
World Nutella Day runs from 8am–3pm.
