The cremino is a type of chocolate consisting of three layers of chocolate, the outer ones of gianduja chocolate and the inner chocolate paste to coffee, lemon or hazelnut typically to form a cube then wrapped in a film of aluminum with a clamp of paper bearing the mark of the manufacturer.

This chocolate was invented in the late nineteenth century by Ferdinando Baratti who had opened a distillery with partner Edward Milan-Turin confectionery as "Baratti & Milano" However, the first official documents date back only to 1934.

Cremino is also linked to the automaker FIAT who in 1911 launched a competition between the chocolatiers of Italy to create a new chocolate at the launch of the new model type 4. The competition was won by Majani Bologna, before the chocolate company founded in Italy in 1796, which created a cremino with four instead of three layers, the layers composed of dark chocolate gianduja and light ones from chocolate with almond paste.
