You are forgetting the 15 minute Baron potential on a Nunu who maxes Consume first; killing him duo with just the top laner is trivial. He can even solo it at 20 minutes.
So I'm just gonna cover a few points.
Summoner spells:
To start with, Smite is mandatory, even if you have Consume. Hopefully I won't need to elaborate on the importance of a ranged Smite of the enemy blue.
Flash is also mandatory on Nunu & Willump. Teleport is a pointless spell for junglers, imo, unless you're someone like Shen or Lee Sin. Nunu & Willump has no real escapes, only a negligible speed buff which can't make you jump through walls. So Flash is not a preference, but a must-have spell.
Masteries:
Someone mentioned this earlier, but the 2 points in Butcher are a waste. Nunu & Willump is one of the junglers who can go through the jungle without using a single potion, because of Consume.
You should take at least 9 points in Utility, taking Runic Affinity and then decide whether you're going to go full damage masteries or full tanky masteries.
If you decide on 20/1/9, then you take all the usual mage masteries and leave out Executioner and taking Summoner's Resolve . I don't suggest this mastery set.
If you decide on 0/21/9, then take points in at least Tenacious , Summoner's Resolve , Juggernaut and Honor Guard . Other considerations are Unyielding , Block and Relentless . Thereafter, a combination of armor and magic resist masteries should be considered.
It's also possible to run mainly into the utility tree for increased gold income. You can put up to 16 mastery points into this tree for this purpose.
Skill Sequence:
You will only ever need to take Consume at level 1 for jungle clearing. Anything else shouldn't be necessary. You should max Ice Blast first, unless you feel that you are unable to get your ganks off, in which case, maxing boiling blood is a better idea. But leave Consume till last.
Items:
You can take 5 potions when you get a Hunter's Machete. The first major item on Nunu & Willump should really be Rod of Ages. Examine this item. It takes 10 minutes to fully charge up to maximum stats, so you need to get it as early as possible. Since Nunu & Willump has great AP ratios, he doesn't crave AP as much as other AP champs might. Rabadon's Deathcap and Void Staff/ Abyssal Mask are possibly all you'll really need for damage after that.
Do not build Tear of the Goddess or any upgrades thereafter on Nunu & Willump. He doesn't suffer from mana problems and he gets enough AP from the above mentioned items.
Defensive items include Rylai's Crystal Scepter, Guardian Angel, Frozen Heart, Shurelya's Battlesong, Randuin's Omen, Banshee's Veil and Runic Bulwark.
Utility items include Twin Shadows, Morellonomicon, Shard of True Ice, Banner of Command and Mikael's Blessing.
Jungling route:
Start with Wolves or enemy wraiths, then move on to Blue Buff. The rest of your route is fine.
Though, the guides are meant to be made by people that do not need/barely need to learn about that champ anymore.
You shouldn't make a guide to learn about a certain champion, you should read guides :P
But this is no problem. I don't know what summoner's level you are or whatever, I don't care.
I recommend that you will archive this guide, research all you can about Nunu and the League of Legends, untill you believe you understand that champion and how it fits in the League.
Look at the other guide makers, how they did it, and look if you agree or disagree, and if you disagree, why do you disagree?
Look at other guides for structure and style, see which structure you like, which style you like.
Based on all the answers and knowledge you get from this journey, you will be able to make a guide.
And when you are ready, recreate this guide and then publish it :P
Then your guide will surely reach high :D
I wish you good luck with your journey!

Anyway, the guide itself is bad.
Wrong masteries, wrong items in core build in wrong order, wrong skill sequence and runes are... alright, I suppose.
The guide itself has no real structure and contains errors. Like how you imply that you can tank the Baron at level 9. I also assume English is not your first language, due to the amount of typing errors in the guide.
Hello! Not really liking Teleport. You'd be better off with something like Flash/ Exhaust. You leave Mobility Boots way too late. I just saw your ability sequence and read your creeping chapter. I don't even know if you are level 30. "IF the enemy team has a jungler" their should ALWAYS be a jungler unless you are below level 30.. NEVER max Consume first, max it LAST. ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS. Max Ice Blast first. I'm highly temped to -1 just because of this. How many games have you played with Nunu & Willump? If you're going ap, or playing Nunu & Willump at all, you DON'T MAX CONSUME! The rest of your guide is okay but it's very short and hasn't been structured well. I score you a 6, which isn't a +1 or -1. Next time I won't be so fair.
I've read your guide... I started about a month ago to play LOL, so I'm not Pro... yet.
About the guide when someone is newie and sees a lot of information, it takes too much time reading a very long guide can get tired, instead I think that you are going straight to the point wich is good, as soon as I get Nunu I will try this guide it since it's better to try the guide and then comment instead of only seeing and state that is wrong if you didn't take your time to try it.
I think it's approachable to get these items, there will be sometimes you wouldn't reach all of them because every single match is different from each other, KSing is not the only way getting additional gold, gold can be obtained also destroying turrets and inhibitors, assists, if you kill the dragon you get additional gold, Shut downs and more, son KSing is not the only way.
Thanks for the guide, as soon as you get more time would be good to know your tactics. Regards
Now let's look at your guide! :D
It is a bit short and a bit unstructured.
With making it a bit longer, you can think of more explanation or information.
You could add a spells chapter or a pros and cons chapter, all that kind of good stuff.
The structure is just to make it more pleasant to read. You can achieve structure by having more space between paragraphs, giving the paragraphs titles and use some structural coding, this could be color (which you give to titles or important lines) or a border between each paragraphs.
I am not a Nunu fan, so I cannot judge about your build.
Still, the guide itself surely can improve :P
Good luck!
