Nudossi (German pronunciation: [nuˈdɔsi]) is a brand of sweetened hazelnut cocoa spread manufactured by the Saxon and Dresdner baking and confectionery GmbH & Co. KG ,formerly known as Vadossi.

Well known as a product during the German Democratic Republic (GDR), it was often compared to Nutella which had been widely available outside the Communist bloc since 1965.

Sugar (50%),[6] hazelnuts (36%),[7] vegetable fat (palm oil or salnut oil), low-fat cocoa powder, skimmed milk powder, emulsifier: sunflower lecithins, mono- and diglycerides of Edible fats, salt.

Beginning in 1957, the company traded as Vadossi KG Schokoladen- und Zuckerwarenfabrik with state participation.

The already mentioned high nut content was originally born out of necessity: In the GDR, hazelnuts were easier to get than artificial flavors.

In 1972, the company became part of the Dresden-based Dresdner Candy Factory Elbflorenz, run as their Vadossi plant.

When the banks refused to open fresh credit lines for the purchase of raw ingredients for Christmas confectionaries, the company was forced to declare bankruptcy on 25 July 2005.
