Celebrity Cooking Class Contests

Nutella and Hilary Duff Joined to Celebrate World Nutella Day

In honor of World Nutella Day on February 5th, Nutella and Hilary Duff are giving fans the chance to win a live cooking tutorial with the 'Lizzie McGuire' star.

To enter for a chance to win the exclusive experience, as well as $1,000 that they can spend at Williams Sonoma, fans in the US can share their favorite ways to enjoy the addictive hazelnut spread on their personal social media channels. Posts should either feature a short description of their favorite Nutella-integrated dish or a photo, and must include the #WorldNutellaDaySweeps hashtag.

Nutella North America VP of Marketing Todd Midura spoke to the partnership with Duff, stating "Not only does Hilary represent a lot of our fans as a busy mom, but she also recognizes that Nutella is a key ingredient when it comes to gathering around the breakfast table or making special memories in the kitchen. We’re looking forward to bringing consumers together and celebrating them with the chance to join Hilary and create a delicious Nutella treat in the process."
