Undoubtedly one of the best gelateria’s in Melbourne, Lisa Valmorbida’s Pidapipó was founded on the bond she shared with her Nonno and their mutual love for gelato. The extensive list of homemade flavours includes Nutella Swirl which is similar to stracciatella, but the real treat is the Nutella tap which allows you to dollop liquid hazelnut onto the scoop of your choice. No-one does decadence like the Italians.

You wouldn’t typically associate Nutella with Japanese cuisine but the masterminds at Fitzroy’s Peko Peko have defied expectations to create Nutella gyoza.

Modelled after an American trailer park come East Coast diner, Joshua Lefers’ Grand Trailer Park features a gluttonous menu packed with mouth-watering burgers and spiked shakes.

You even get a jar of Nutella to take home.

Lygon Street’s Brunetti has been an iconic part of Melbourne’s café culture since 1985.

Famous for its liquid nitrogen gelato, N2 has a menu that changes every fortnight. This means that you may have to drop in a few times before you get to try the Ferrero Reveal but trust us – the wait is worth it. Nutella ice cream sits underneath a shell of ‘Ice Magic’ which is topped with ‘Rice Bubbles’ and crushed hazelnuts, and injected with a syringe full of chocolate ganache.
