Can Ferrero Rocher be made at home? How to make a giant Ferrero Rocher chocolate candy, as well as small ones with hazelnuts and Nutella.
Video recipe - Ferrero Rocher sweets
Ingredients:
- milk chocolate - 120 g;
- waffles - 5 pcs.
Big nut:
- hazelnuts - 70 g (chopped);
- sugar - 40 g.
- nutella - 1600 g.
Coating:
- milk chocolate - 400 g;
- hazelnuts - 180 g (chopped)
Step-by-step preparation of candy
Let's make a big nut
We will need a silicone mold with hemispheres, the diameter of which is 6.5 cm. Pour sugar into a thick-bottomed saucepan or frying pan and place on heat slightly below medium. Without stirring, let the sugar dissolve completely.
When the sugar has dissolved and turned light brown, add the nuts. Mix well so that all the nuts are coated with sugar. Transfer to the mold and compact. We need one nut for Ferrero Rocher, so we fill two hemispheres.
Let's make a candy body
We will need a mold in the form of a hemisphere with a diameter of 14 cm. Cover it with foil.
Melt the chocolate in the microwave, remove and stir every 30 seconds. We break the wafers for the candy body and use a brush to apply melted chocolate to it. Place in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes to allow the chocolate to harden.
Tip: Try to use small pieces as little as possible.
We take the mold out of the refrigerator and fill it with Nutella, not reaching the edge by about 5 mm. We insert half a nut into the middle and press it so that it is completely immersed in the Nutella and they are on the same level. Place in the freezer for 1 hour to harden the Nutella.
We take Ferrero Rocher out of the mold and put it back in the freezer while we make the second half of the same kind. When the two parts have frozen, take them out of the freezer and remove the foil from one. Apply a small amount of Nutella to each half of the candy, just avoid the nuts.
We connect the two parts of Ferrero Rocher, press and remove the excess Nutella that has come out. Place the candy in the freezer for 30 minutes.
Chocolate for coating
Melt chocolate in the microwave. Pour the chopped nuts into it and mix.
We take Ferrero Rocher candy out of the freezer, remove the foil and place it on a plate. Using a spoon, evenly spread chocolate and nuts onto one half of the candy and place in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to harden.
Take it out of the refrigerator, turn the candy over and apply chocolate and nuts to the second part. Put it back in the refrigerator to set.
You can make small Ferrero Rocher candies, everything is very simple. Fill the wafer hemispheres with Nutella and place a whole nut in one.
Combine the two halves and place in the freezer for 20 minutes.
Take it out of the freezer, dip it in melted chocolate and nuts and put it in the refrigerator until it hardens.
As you can see, the Ferrero Rocher sweets are prepared very simply and tasty.
The giant candy and the small ones really look like real Ferrero Rocher.
They gave me a treat for the New Year; among children's gifts, there are even tastier candies. I like the “Otlomi” candies better. Now, if the chocolate was bitter, it was sweet inside, and instead of a nut there was such a salty sweet paste or sherbet... Maybe I should start making candy. Need to think.
Advantages:
- quality
- decor,
Flaws:
- expensive
I've only tried them twice in my life. I immediately liked their soft taste and delicious crispy crust. One downside is that they are very expensive to enjoy on a regular basis. It seems to me that we rather pay more for the box than for the chocolate itself. If you don’t know what to give to your friends and acquaintances, then FERRERO Rocher sweets are the best gift.
Advantages:
- decent design
Flaws:
- expensive
The first time I tried these candies was in the early 90s. Against the background of empty store shelves, coupons and an acute shortage of food, these sweets seemed to me to simply taste divine.
Now, when store shelves are bursting with all kinds of confectionery products, and not only, of various companies, brands, brands, both domestic and foreign, Ferrero sweets do not have a particularly refined taste. But the price is stinging!!!
An analogue of these candies are Esfero candies (even the name is consonant) from Amur brand Roshen (made in Ukraine).
I really like the design and packaging of Ferrero chocolates - they look very presentable and expensive. It is also pleasing that there are various shapes and configurations of packaging in different weights.

Flaws:
- expensive
I received these candies as a present. Very beautifully packaged: a transparent plastic box, which can then be used as a container, for example, for jewelry or something else, inside there are two layers of round golden candies. Simple, but tasteful. We all know that they cost a lot, so I expected an unusually refined taste, but, to be honest, I was disappointed. Regular good candies, but not worth the money. It turns out that we are overpaying only for the brand. Sometimes, ROSHEN candies taste much more interesting and, importantly, are much cheaper. So I don't think it's a wise waste of money. As a gift, as I said above, it is perfect. And if you want to pamper yourself, buy something else, especially since for the same amount you can buy good chocolates in larger quantities and the taste is no worse.
These are the most delicious candies I have ever tried. On the outside there is delicious milk chocolate in the form of crumbs, then a wafer ball, inside there is praline and hazelnuts. The candy aroma is like that of expensive Swiss chocolate. But the price, however, is quite high. Really, these sweets are worth it.
Sweets in which everything tastes perfect and balanced. Very tasty, as they wrote before: the only thing that’s a little confusing is the price. But maybe this is a plus, otherwise it was simply impossible to tear yourself away from them, which is fraught with danger to your figure :)
You can’t often treat yourself to such sweets; it will be quite expensive. But when they give them to us, we always eat them with pleasure! I myself prefer to give Ferrero Rocher when I don’t know the person’s interests; it’s good that the packaging is beautiful and solid.

Yes, yes, yes, I remember these candies, about 4 years ago my grandmother brought me as many as five packages of these same candies, it was like a friend gave them to her, she gave them because they had expired, though only for a couple of days, and my grandmother gave them to me I gave away all five packages because... they are with nuts, but she has no teeth. This is how I became the owner of 5 expired packages of rather expensive packages of Ferrero Rocher chocolates. Outwardly, we did not find any signs of expiration and, naturally, within a week we ate all five packages, I’ll tell you frankly, we were already choking on the last package, you look at it with reluctance and understand that you need it, the expiration date has expired. In general, there were no negative consequences from the feast, which once again proves that the manufacturer indicates the expiration date with a reserve. About the taste: I personally really liked it, perhaps because I got it for free; I generally loved candies with nuts at that time. You can even present it as a gift for some small holiday (just not expired, otherwise they may not understand). And I ask that you also consider the fact that none of the users were poisoned a plus, a fat one at that.
Advantages:
- originality
- quality
- package
Flaws:
- no obvious
This is not the first time we have eaten Ferrero Rocher chocolates, and of course we really like them, although they are not my favorite.
And of course, in terms of originality and quality of the product, these candies are very worthy.
They are sold in various packages, most often we bought them in a package of sixteen pieces; such a box costs three hundred to three hundred fifty rubles in stores.
In general, the candies are very tasty, they have a creamy filling with whole hazelnuts, the candies are covered with milk chocolate on top, as well as small nuts.
In general, good sweets, an excellent addition to tea drinking.
I advise absolutely everyone to try Ferrero Rocher chocolates!

Since I have a sweet tooth, these candies are one of my favorite milk chocolate candies, because I prefer black. But this melting, delicate taste and whole nut inside a crispy shell justifies its taste, you eat with prolonging pleasure and cannot stop, your hand imperceptibly reaches for the next candy, they are so not annoying. The original packaging is always pleasing to the eye, which is always useful for some small things, and especially the heart-shaped box is perfect for women's trinkets. The price is a little steep, but the sweets are worth it. They can also serve as a wonderful addition to any gift.
Love at first bite. Chocolate is almost perfect
royal You try one candy and won’t stop until you’ve eaten it all. True, the candies are quite expensive. But the taste and quality are simply divine.

Details
I didn’t want to write about Ferrero Rocher products, but what can I say, despite the political background, the candies are delicious.
I make bouquets, arrangements and sweet gifts from candies and Ferrero Rocher candies were my most popular product. They look very beautiful and original in compositions, have their own memorable taste and, along with Raffaelo, are in demand by my customers. Now I am looking to use alternative products in compositions, especially since the gift segment is constantly expanding and bouquets of sweets are no longer in demand as much as before. More and more interesting, original sweets are appearing on the confectionery market, so sophisticated romantics are looking for and finding completely different ways to surprise their loved ones with an original gift.
The photo shows some compositions with Ferrero Rocher chocolates - as an alternative to gifts from banal boxes of chocolates.

Despite the wide variety of sweets, you always want something new and tasty. I bought Fererro Rocher candies at the store. They immediately met all my expectations. First of all, we need to start with their packaging. They are originally packaged in shiny foil and are very easy to open. The candy shell consists of chocolate with chopped nuts, under which there is cream. The core of the candy is a nut. And again, despite the nut base, these sweets have a fabulous taste. They can undoubtedly be considered masterpieces among confectionery products. Even with your eyes closed you can taste them differently from other candies.
Hello everyone, friends!
The closer the holiday gets, the more interesting things appear on store shelves. So, in my search for something beautiful, I came across racks of candy. Ferrero Rocher.
And it was a delight; the guys really tried and released several rather curiously designed sets of their candies. But one of the variations simply captivated me 😍 so welcome Ferrero Rosher GRAND
Of course, at first glance it may seem that these are ordinary Ferreros only with a bow, but this is not so! This is just a super huge candy decorated just like the little representatives of this sweet happiness :)
Agree, against the background of a standard mug the size becomes quite clear and it also becomes clear that this is no longer a banal box of chocolates for a New Year's gift, but a completely original surprise that definitely gives emotions.
The whole thing is crowned with a perfectly executed golden bow. Everything is held very securely and looks more than decent. Well, I repeat - this is super original in terms of a sweet present!
Ferrero Rocher Grand chocolate with crispy candies 125g is an original gift for all lovers of popular candies. It is a large hollow ball of milk chocolate and crushed nuts, inside which is a package of two classic Ferrero Rocher chocolates under an elegant gilded wrapper. Ferrero Rocher is a true work of confectionery art: a whole nut is surrounded by a delicate chocolate-nut cream and enclosed in a crispy wafer shell, topped with a layer of chocolate glaze with delicately fried nut crumbs. The ball is packaged in a golden wrapper and decorated with a voluminous bow on top.
The price of Ferrero Rosher GRAND in the Magnolia store is currently 419 rubles. One candy weighs 125 grams.
Well, or rather, it’s not exactly a whole piece of candy :))
After removing the foil, we find a thin plastic ball inside, which protects the contents from damage during transportation.
I think it’s appropriate here to remember the most delicate sweets “35”, which hardly anyone has seen intact, the pyramids are always damaged.
But in the ball itself our delicious treat is already waiting for us. The chocolate ball is solid and hollow inside, but there is a little surprise waiting for us in the form of two small standard Ferrero Rosher candies. Naturally, to get to them, you have to break the ball, but that’s a shame.
Composition of Ferrero Rosher GRAND sweets
To put it literally in three words - the composition is very tasty!

If you really want to, there is something to complain about, but I have no desire to do so. This is clearly not a product in which it is appropriate to look for pre-holiday shortcomings.
Do you know what captivated me most about this candy? It's not even the size, but the aroma! If you are planning to buy Ferrero Rosher GRAND be sure to check the dates so that it is as fresh as possible! And then I’m sure you will also be delighted with the chocolate aroma that begins to swirl around you in the air.
This is really very cool, I haven’t felt such pleasure from candy or chocolate for a long time, without even trying it. And having already tried it... I rushed to write a review so that everyone would quickly learn about such a tasty treat and run to buy it and delight themselves and their loved ones with this delightful appearance, taste, aroma...
But I’ll leave one of these in the car for my beloved, let it be a joyful surprise for her...
Happy holidays, friends!
The world saw the first Ferrero Rocher candies in 1982. Buyers liked them so much that the owners had to open their production not only in Italy, but also in other countries.
About the owners and company
In 1946, Pietro Ferrero and his wife Piera founded the company, which they named after their last name. But it all started back in 1942 with a small shop in the city of Alba (Italy). The signature product was nut sticks dipped in chocolate, which were liked by all the locals.
The company's first factory
When and what happened?
The second country after Italy to begin producing Ferrero sweets was Germany in 1956.
Michele's eldest son in the Ferrero family has been helping in the confectionery business since 1949. Therefore, in 1957, Pietro entrusted him with the management of the company.
Russian sweets lovers have been able to buy Ferrero in their country since 1995. For this purpose, a Ferrero Russia representative office has been opened.
Popularity and success
Ferrero company is one of the most popular in the world. It employs more than 22 thousand people at 38 trading and 18 manufacturing enterprises.
Ferrero chocolates are sold all over the world. They are issued every year in the amount of over $10 billion.
Ferrero sweets contain a third of the world's hazelnut harvest.
Now production and trade are managed by Giovanni, Michele's son.
Attention! The name Rosher is very reminiscent of the Ukrainian brand Roshen. Don't confuse them. Both companies survived trial over this issue. The Italians won it.
The popularity of Ferrero led to the fact that housewives began to make “Ferrero Rocher” according to a home recipe.
Product uniqueness
Many Ferrero products are unique. For example, Kinder eggs with toys placed inside are famous:
- Kinder Bueno.
- Kinder Delice.
- Kinder Chocolate.
- Kinder Surprise.
The idea for their manufacture was given by U. Salice.
Similar kinders were made back in the Russian Empire. But they did not become widespread.
Structure
Ferrero Rocher candies - a complete set of yummy things. They are shaped like our planet. Thanks to this, they almost jump into the mouth themselves.
Each candy has a core - a hazelnut. It is surrounded, like the core of a planet, by several confectionery layers: nut cream, crispy wafer, milk chocolate, hazelnut pieces.
The golden wrapper emphasizes the value of the taste of any Ferrero Rocher candy.
All structural parts of Ferrero Rocher sweets are matched like cheese to butter: individually they are simply delicious, together they represent a masterpiece of confectionery art.
The crunchy layer inside creates a delicious sound that makes you pause to enjoy the smell and taste of chocolate, which colors the candies with a familiar milky brown hue.
Dreamy pleasure accompanies the process of delicacy with each copy of Ferrero Rocher.
Compound
The candies use milk chocolate. Therefore, the ingredients include milk powder and whey.
Cocoa butter perfectly complements cocoa powder, filling the candies with a chocolate aroma.
Soy lecithin is needed for viscosity and long-term storage.
Nuts are the component that attracts millions of sweet tooths.
Well, not a single confectionery product can do without sugar.
Flour and vegetable oil are used for the waffle crust.
There is also vanilla flavoring and sodium bicarbonate as a leavening agent and a little salt.
Nutritional value
Sweets are very high in calories, so you shouldn't eat a lot of them. But sometimes it is simply necessary to do this. After all, putting Rocher in your mouth, you can feel an unforgettable pleasure, creating a little holiday for yourself.
The calorie content of one round piece is 70 kcal. In every hundred grams of Rocher - 603 kcal.
For example, one hundred grams of other foods have fewer calories:
- cottage cheese - 101 kcal;
- sour cream 35 percent fat - 337 kcal;
- condensed milk - 320 kcal;
- meat and poultry (from veal and chicken to pork and turkey) - 90–480 kcal;
- red and black caviar - 250 and 236 kcal, respectively;
- porridge - 335–395 kcal.
Fats and carbohydrates are balanced: 42.8 g and 44.3 g per 100 g of sweets. There is less protein: 8.1 g. They are present due to milk components and cocoa.
But the sweets contain vitamins and microelements.
There are no synthetic substances in Ferrero Rocher. But they are perfectly stored for 300 days due to well-selected components and high-quality manufacturing. The most “terrible” preservative is soy lecithin, which is a natural ingredient.
Candies successfully retain calories and nutrients at home: at a temperature of 18–22 ° C and 65% humidity.
Types of packaging
The owners of Ferrero took care of the variety of Rocher packaging:
- Heart.
- Cone.
- Tuba.
- New Year's.
- Bell.
- Chest.
- Cube.
- Diamond.
Candy box shapes:

Rondnoir has dark chocolate complemented with almond buttercream
Raffaello stands out for its coconut surface. There are almonds and a waffle layer.

- Pocket Coffee. This is dark chocolate that includes coffee in its filling.
- Mon Cheri. Cherry center, infused with liqueur, in dark chocolate.
- Kusschen. In the middle there are hazelnuts floating in nut cream. Outside - chocolate and nut pieces.
Both Italy and other countries can be found on the packaging as a manufacturer. The owners of Ferrero operate their corporation from Luxembourg.
Analogues
Many confectioners are jealous of the success of the Ferrero family and some of them are trying to copy the popular products of the Italians.
One of them is Igor Markitanov from St. Petersburg, who previously made money from distributing Ferrero products. The sweets produced by his Landrin company since 2003 are similar to Italian ones. But the volumes are small: amounting to only $100 million per year.
Ferrero today and tomorrow
Every year, sweet lovers buy Ferrero chocolates worth a total of €80 billion. This is 7.8% of the global sales of all confectionery products in the world.
Although the international leader (Mondelez International) sells almost twice as much (14.6%), the owners of Ferrero have little left to achieve it: to beat Mars (14.2%) and Nestle (12.2%).
Not far from the Russian city of Vladimir, the Ferrero family opened a branch in 2009. It occupies a fairly large area: 80 thousand m2. The produced candies are sold in Russia and neighboring countries.
