Исходное описание на английском языке. Русский перевод ещё не добавлен.

Karlovarské trojhránky are traditionally made wafers, produced from the Karlové oplatky wafers when they are cut in eight pieces, forming small triangles and can be sold either individually or in batches of several pieces. They are produced in the area of Karlovy Vary in the Czech Republic since the mid-18th century, when they were originally home-baked. The whole wafers have a diameter of 19 centimeters and, in the middle, there is a water fountain or a chamois, a symbol of the spa town. Thermal spring water is used in the production, acting as a moisturizer for the wafers. They are sprinkled with sugar, hazelnuts, almonds, cocoa, vanilla or cinnamon, and then baked until they are crisp, thin and develop their characteristical flavor and scent. Whether whole or cut into triangles, the wafers are extremely popular in the area, eaten as a snack or bought as a souvenir from Karlovy Vary.
