Wait! With regard to chocolate tempering the overall sweetness, I was referring back to the what you said previously, about attempting one of the home made chocolate-hazelnut spreads, but omitting the chocolate (in which case, you would not be cutting back on the sweetness).
Nutella itself is crazy sweet (even the European versions, which are the only ones I generally have access to).

Not being one for throwing food away I scraped the last vestiges of Nutella from the jar in my cupboard this spring.
Spread on a rye roll, it did taste pretty funky, but hey, waste not want not.
Reading the 'Best Before' on the label it said 2006.
I will call in at my local Lidl tomorrow to stock up
(It's true I tell ya)

I blame the rye roll, not the nutella, for the funkiness!
I have marmite of a similar age, but nutella does not last in this house.

I see that Jiff came out with a chocolate hazelnut spread. Has anyone tried it?

There is nothing better in this galaxy than Nutella spread on a halved warm, plain buttery croissant.
NOTHING.
I gotta admit, I just don't get it ... Nutella just doesn't do anything for me. Now, a warm (not microwaved) buttery croissant with good
dulce de leche, that's somethin' else.
