Cells like sugar . General synthesis and potential of intracellular hydrophobic drug delivery of single‐component polysaccharide capsules are pursued. The capsules can be generally assembled through hydrogen bonding networks but show striking shell robustness. The evidenced cell internalization, stimuli‐responsiveness to local pH changes and high biocompatibilities of the capsules specifically favor their potential intracellular drug delivery
