Nestl\u00e9 is to introduce Baci Perugina, the iconic Italian chocolate brand recognised worldwide for its Italian heritage, quality and taste, with a new range of high-end products available to duty-free customers.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The fine chocolate recipe, first crafted by Luisa Spagnoli in 1922 in the medieval Italian city of Perugina, has gone on to inspire an expansive and luxurious product line offering a number of variations on the original dark Baci (meaning \u201ckisses\u201d in Italian).<\/p>\n

The unforgettable \u2018kiss\u2019 with an irresistible Italian taste is currently enjoyed in 55 countries, selling some 500 million units a year and Nestl\u00e9 International Travel Retail General Manager Stewart Dryburgh believes it is Baci\u2019s association with love that makes the brand ideal for gifting within global travel retail.<\/p>\n

\u201cOver the past 96 years, Baci Perugina chocolates have travelled to all parts of the world, bringing with them the best of Italian values, tradition, customs and culture,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

Appealing to discerning, gift-buying customers and capitalising on the ever-growing dark and premium chocolate trend, four decadently dark offerings: Baci Original Dark Bag, Baci Original Dark Bijou, Baci Extra Dark Bijou and Baci Original Dark Box are accompanied by the smooth and sumptuous Baci Milk Bijou \u2013 making it easier than ever before for travellers to share unforgettable moments with friends and loved ones with the special gift that says, \u201cI love you the Italian way\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur value for quality, wholesome and healthy ingredients meets the demand of high-end consumers worldwide who are increasingly mindful of what they eat,\u201d continues Dryburgh. \u201cWith the introduction of these five new products, which are perfect for global travel retail we look forward to working further with the industry to delight the palates of even more consumers across the globe. One of the major requirements for ITR \u2013 and indeed Nestle \u2013 is that brands have stories to tell. Baci has a great story and, quite uniquely, everyone is different \u2013 each has an \u2018irregularity\u2019 that makes it more desirable.\u201d<\/p>\n

Baci Perugina\u2019s history, founded on Italian culture, tradition and passion, encapsulates the very essence of the celebrated \u2018Made in Italy With Love\u2019 concept conveyed by its star-studded wrapping, indulgent ingredients and the \u2018love notes\u2019 (romantic messages penned by philosophers, classical authors, contemporary artists) offered in various International languages that have become synonymous with the brand.<\/p>\n

Baci Perugina will be available from September this year.<\/strong><\/p>\n
