Balocco cream wafers

I am a big fan of wafer biscuits. In Egypt we have 2 competitive companies that make this type of biscuits, both have the same price (1 L.E.) but unfortunately of the same quality which is fine but not great.Nothing  compares with Loacker wafers
With the foreign biscuits we have a few good tries  at  reasonable prices and of great quality.
Pocker (I admire the creativity of the name BTW ) with a variety of flavors: chocolate, hazelnut cream, vanilla and others at 2.5 L.E.  It really comes very close in term of the wrapping and the amount of cream to Loacker
I am talking today about Balocco wafers which I found at the store in front of ( Mecca juices) in Smouha.
The first thing that caught my attention that it's not the new Turkish biscuit that you can find in every store in Egypt these days, but it's Italian with a small flag of Italy on the front of the wrapping.

The flavor of chocalate hazelnut ( which is one of my favorites ) was really exceptional. It's very rich and tasty, with thin crispy wafers that makes the biscuit tastes amazing.
In my opinion it's the same as loacker if not better
Yes I said it, better than Loacker !!!
With a price of 3 L.E. it's one of my best finds this year.
