If you love coconut, you’ll love this easy recipe! Raffaello, even though they’re a rare treat for me, are one of my favorites. They’re so delicious creamy and coconutty. Yum!
Their website says: “Raffaello, the only pleasure that transports you to a carefree world.” - I wouldn’t go quite that far, but they are extremely delicious!
Luckily, my mom shares the same opinion, so we were on the same page about trying out this Raffaello spread.
{homemade raffaello spread}
By Published: May 1, 2012
- Prep: 10 mins
“Raffaello, the only pleasure that transports you to a carefree world.” ;)
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter {200g}
- 7 ounces white chocolate {200g}
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 1 1/3 cups sweetened condensed milk {400g}
- 1 cup coconut flakes {70g}
Instructions
- Heat butter in a saucepan until completely melted.
- Add the white chocolate to the butter and melt.
- Add sweet condensed milk, vanilla and coconut flakes and mix well.
- Fill into a jar while the mixture is still warm.
Notes
- We did miss the almond that sits in the center of the Raffaello. So, next time we’ll make this recipe, we’ll probably add some almond pieces to it.

I love Raffaello! And I guess I do get pretty carefree when I eat them, As I always end up having too many! :) But is it just me or is there no recipe in this post? x

Irgendwas hat heute morgen mit dem Posten nicht so recht funktioniert und es hat wohl das Rezept “geschluckt”. Jetzt wird’s aber wieder angezeigt.
Liebe Grüße!!
Prima. Das kommt jetzt auf mein ‘Yumminess’ Pinboard! :o)

Oy! Sieht guuut aus! Ich werde das Rezept die nächsten Tage einmal ausprobieren. Ich glaube ich werde eine Hälfte der Masse mit ein paar grobgehackten Mandeln “pimpen” und dann mit der Family ein kleines Testnaschen veranstalten.
Vielen lieben Dank, Sonia! Sag mir bitte mal bescheid wie es mit den Mandeln schmeckt. Die haben mir in dem Rezept doch wirklich etwas gefehlt. ;)
Ganz liebe Grüße!! Vanessa

I hope you’re having a fabulous day as well! Mine’s almost over, but we had a wonderful day. It’s a holiday here in Germany today and the hubby and I spent the day with my dad and his girlfriend. We all went for a bike ride and ended the day with a yummy dinner at a café by the river beach. So much fun! :)

I have never heard of this Raffaello. I love coconut. How would I use this in recipes? Thanks
You should definitely give it a try if you love coconut. :)
The spread is delicious on bread or a croissant. But I can also see it for filling or topping on cake and cupcakes.
Have a great weekend, Susan!

I’ve never heard of Raffaello but those ingredients sound SOO good together. Definitely something I’m going to pin.

YUM! JUST MADE SOME AND SO HEAVENLY! DOES THIS NEED TO BE REFRIDGERATED AND WHATS THE SHELF LIFE?XX
Oh, I’m so happy to hear you liked it! ;)
It should definitely be refrigerated. As for the shelf life, it’s a little hard to say and homemade things. I would just use your judgement on it and trust your nose and eyes.
I’m sorry I can’t be of more help..
I hope you’re having a fun week!
xo! Vanessa
