'''[[Template:Chráněných Zeměpisných Označeni|CZO]] Mariánskolázeňské oplatky''' are Czech [[wafers]] which consist of two thin sheets held together by a layer of filling. A distinction is made between the [[hazelnut]] and [[cocoa]] varieties, according to the type of filling. They are round and regular in shape with a slightly crumbled edge, break with a distinctive crack and bear a characteristic relief in the form of a stylised garland of leaves around the circumference. The relief in the middle of the [[wafer]] varies according to the individual producer. Depending on the type of batter, the [[wafers]] are cream-coloured or light brown. They are crisp and well-[[baked]], the filling has a granular texture and the taste, which reflects the raw materials used, is sweet. They are placed on the market packaged in aluminium foil, cartons and possibly plastic film, in quantities of 175 grams. Raw materials used: [[wheat]] [[flour]], [[sugar]], hardened [[fat]], [[hazelnut]] kernels, [[wheat]] germ, [[milk]] [[fat]], [[vegetable]] [[fat]], [[cocoa]], [[milk]] powder, dried [[egg]] yolk, [[wheat]] starch, [[salt]], lecithin emulsifier, [[lemon]] flavouring, [[cinnamon]], [[hazelnut]] flavouring, ethyl vanillin, [[almond]] flavouring.

'''Geographical area:'''

The area of the municipality of Mariánské Lázně and of the municipality of Velká Hleďsebe, which forms part of the administrative district called Mariánské Lázně.

'''Method of production:'''

Production of the [[wafers]] begins with the preparation of the [[wafer]] batter using the above-mentioned raw materials. After being mixed, the batter is taken from the mixer to the rotary baking machine (the standard machine used to produce [[wafers]]); the cooked sheets are removed by hand and placed in racks. The racks are transported to a humidifying chamber, where the [[wafer]] sheets are humidified at a rate of 90 % for about five days. The bottom sheet is then sprinkled by hand with a mixture of [[sugar]], [[fat]], [[hazelnuts]] and other raw materials (according to the variety), the second sheet is placed on top and the two are [[baked]] together. After being measured out to the appropriate weight, the [[wafers]] are packaged in aluminium [[foil]], placed in cartons and machine-wrapped. After being marked with an eat-by date, the cartons are stored in large cardboard boxes and transferred to a storeroom. Since the [[wafers]] are crisp and absorb moisture easily, they must be packaged directly at the production site so that their quality can be preserved and they can be monitored more closely.

The first references to spa [[wafers]] in Mariánské Lázně date from the 18th century. With the development of water cures, the original production of [[wafers]] by the inhabitants for their own consumption gradually grew into large-scale production for commercial purposes. Karel Reitenberger may be regarded as the founder of industrial production, which he began in 1856. Almost a hundred years later, the range of spa [[wafers]] was extended by Josef Homolka, who arrived from Vienna bringing his enhanced machinery and his own recipes for [[wafers]] made from [[chocolate]]-flavoured batter. In the minds of consumers, the [[wafers]] are clearly associated with the West Bohemian spa area, of which Mariánské Lázně is a major centre. Details of ingredients and production have been passed down from one generation to another in local bakeries. In recent times, the range of [[wafers]] was extended by the firm KLS KLIMENTOV s.r.o. in 1995.

Historical documents are stored in the town archives and local newspaper archives and at the firm Opavia-LU a.s. Many historical and present-day references to the [[wafers]] and their reputation can be found on different websites, e.g. the Hamelika website, which focuses on the history of Mariánské Lázně, the website of [[wafer]] producer Opavia-LU, a.s., and the website of the town of Mariánské Lázně, as well as in newspaper articles (Mariánskolázeňské Listy No 6/1994, Chebský deník of 13.5.2006, Chebsko of 21.12.2005). The town museum also contains many documents and exhibits on the history of the production of [[wafers]] in the area defined.
