The European squid is the name by which the youngest squid specimens are popularly known. Like the squid, European squids are cephalopods and tend to live in shoals near the surface of the sea, and can be found mainly in the Atlantic Ocean but also in the Mediterranean Sea. Frinsa's European squid is stuffed manually with its own tentacles and, then, a covering liquid made with its own ink is added.
