Ferrero Rocher Moments’ unique recipe is characterized by the exquisite smooth hazelnut cream, all encased in a crunchy wafer shell surrounded with fine meringue nuggets.

The launch will be supported by an integrated media campaign, including TVC, presence on digital and on-ground activations during Diwali. The brand is positioned to “Make the Moment Perfect”, which entails cherishing and celebrating every small moment with your family and friends and making them perfect with Ferrero Rocher Moments.
