The Cover Feature shows the formation of self‐assembled organic nanotubes from cholesterol‐based low‐molecular‐weight gelator bearing an arene core. These nanostructures are fully controlled by arene regioisomerism. Specifically, the ortho ‐substitution pattern is responsible for the formation of such nanotubes resembling rolled wafer cookies.
