The cover image represents the agglomeration of nanoparticles with different sizes during a spray‐drying process. As described in article number 1800096 by Karl Mandel and co‐workers, the individual nanoparticles assemble towards supraparticles with a distinct substructure, namely larger core particles with smaller satellite particles. These supraparticles are micron‐sized and look raspberry‐like. They have an inherent burst mechanism installed and can thereby be redispersed into individual core‐satellite colloidal molecules.
