Manner, Vienna
Manner is a brand of confectionery products under the Austrian conglomerate Josef Manner & Comp AG. This company, established in 1890, manufactures a wide range of confectionery items, including wafers, long-lasting sweets, chocolate-based confections, candies, cocoa, and various seasonal treats.
The most renowned product from this company is the "Neapolitan wafers," which were first introduced in 1898. These wafers are available in packs of ten, each containing hazelnut cream-filled wafers measuring 47 x 17 x 17 millimeters. Originally, the hazelnuts used in these wafers were sourced from the Naples region in Italy, which explains the name "Neapolitan." Remarkably, the basic recipe for these wafers has remained unchanged throughout the years.
The company's logo features an image of Saint Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna. This logo dates back to the 1890s when Josef Manner (1865鈥�1947) inaugurated his inaugural store adjacent to the cathedral. An agreement was established between the Archdiocese of Vienna and the Manner Company, allowing the company to use the cathedral in its logo in exchange for providing financial support for the wages of one stonemason responsible for carrying out repair work on the cathedral's structure.
The Manner shop is located next to Saint Stephen Cathedral. There you can find the famous Manner wafers and Mozart balls, both are delicious in taste and great gifts to bring home from Vienna.
