Turin is the birthplace of gianduja, the hazelnut-chocolate blend created here in the 19th century, and this small-group tasting session digs into that heritage. Over about an hour a local chocolatier guides you through samples of gianduiotti, pralines and the city’s celebrated layered flavours, explaining how Turin became Italy’s chocolate capital. It is an easy, indulgent stop between sightseeing and a good primer before browsing the historic confectioners nearby.
