1 piece (medium) of Hazelnut Cream Wafer (30 g) has 159 calories. That works out to 530 calories per 100 g. It contains 16.8 g of carbs, 1.9 g of protein, 9.6 g of fat and 0.8 g of fiber. Its 0.1 mg of Copper covers 13% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 65 (high), so it raises blood sugar quickly.
Hazelnut Cream Wafer is a sweet snack made from thin, crisp wafer sheets layered with a smooth hazelnut-flavoured filling. Its light crunch contrasts with the soft cream, making it an easy treat to serve with tea or coffee, share from a plate, or tuck into a lunchbox for an occasional snack. The layered wafers are familiar in many countries, though brands and fillings vary.
It is mainly a source of carbohydrate and fat, with relatively little protein or fibre, so it is better enjoyed as a sweet bite than relied on to keep you full. Pair a small portion with unsweetened tea or coffee, or serve it alongside fresh fruit when you want a less rich snack plate.

Usually, Hazelnut Cream Wafer contains hazelnuts or hazelnut paste, but the amount varies by product. The name alone does not tell you how much is used, and some recipes may also use hazelnut flavouring.
Hazelnut Cream Wafer is best thought of as a sweet treat rather than a nutrient-rich snack. Its cream and wafer layers can make it easy to eat quickly, so it works better as an occasional treat than as a regular snack.
Hazelnut Cream Wafer does not cause weight gain by itself, but eating it often or in large amounts can add substantially to your overall intake. For a more filling snack, pair a small piece with fruit or plain yogurt.
Hazelnut Cream Wafer is made by spreading hazelnut cream between thin, baked wafer sheets and stacking the layers. The sheets are then cut into pieces; homemade versions let you choose the cream and adjust how generously it is spread.
Hazelnut Cream Wafer goes soft when its thin wafer layers absorb moisture from the air. Once opened, seal the packet tightly or move the pieces to an airtight container to help preserve their crisp texture.
No, Hazelnut Cream Wafer generally does not need refrigeration. Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight; refrigerator moisture can soften the wafer layers and may change the cream’s texture.
You can freeze Hazelnut Cream Wafer, but freezing is usually unnecessary and thawing may affect its crispness. If you do freeze it, seal it well against moisture and let it come back to room temperature before opening.
Hazelnut Cream Wafer gets its characteristic filling from hazelnut cream, while a chocolate wafer uses a chocolate-flavoured filling. Some products combine hazelnut and cocoa, so the names alone do not guarantee that their flavours are completely separate.
Yes, Hazelnut Cream Wafer pairs well with coffee. Its sweet filling contrasts with unsweetened coffee, and serving the two together can make a small piece feel like a dessert rather than an everyday snack.
Children can have Hazelnut Cream Wafer occasionally as a sweet treat, but it is better not to make it a routine snack. Do not give it to a child with a hazelnut allergy or an allergy to another ingredient in the product.
