The Gianduiotto (IPA: [dʒanduˈjɔtto]; Piedmontese, Giandojòt) is chocolate originally from Piedmont, in northern Italy, whose shape is similar to an upturned boat. Gianduiotti are individually wrapped in a tinfoil cover, usually gold or silver-colored. It is the speciality of Turin, and takes its name from gianduja, the preparation of chocolate that is used for gianduiotti and other sweets (including Nutella and Bicerin di Gianduiotto); in turn, this preparation is named after Gianduja, a mask in commedia dell'arte that represents the archetypal Piedmontese. Indeed, Gianduja's hat inspired the shape of the Gianduiotto.
