For years Europeans have been enjoying the deliciousness that is Nutella. And now, after lengthy deprivation, it has finally made its way to the land of the morning calm.

Ever since its national release, Koreans have been going nuts for the incredibly rich and decadent hazelnut spread.

This nutty-brown spread is often mistaken for chocolate, thanks to the color. But all the taste and flavor come from roasted hazelnuts.

While Korean supermarkets have been unenlightened about this wondrous ingredient until now, the restaurants of Seoul have been quicker off the mark and have been using Nutella in their recipes for years.

Delicious Nutella desserts can be found all over Seoul if you know where to look. Here are five of the best.
