Quadratini (Italian for 'little squares') are super yummy, cube-shaped wafer biscuits from Italy! They are made by a company called Loacker, which started way back in 1925. These cookies are special because they have many thin layers of crispy wafer with creamy filling in between.
How Quadratini Are Made
The Loacker company was started by Alfons Loacker in 1925. The Quadratini cookies themselves first came out in 1994. Loacker's main office is in South Tyrol, Italy. They also have a factory in Heinfels, Austria, where they make these delicious treats.
