Raffaello is a spherical coconut–almond truffle that Italian manufacturer Ferrero brought to the market in 1990.[1] It consists of a spherical wafer which is filled with a white milk cream and white blanched almonds. It is then surrounded by a coconut layer. It does contain lactose, making Raffaello incompatible for consumers with lactose intolerance.
Ferrero factories which manufacture Raffaello include Vladimir, Russia;[2]Brantford, Canada;[3] and Arlon, Belgium.[4] Russia is Ferrero's largest market for Raffaello.[5]
