Questions about Cake or wafer-type ice cream cones
How do you stop an ice cream cone going soggy?
Put a small piece of chocolate at the bottom of the cone and let it set before filling; it helps seal the tip. Fill the cone just before serving, as ice cream softens the wafer quickly.
Can you warm an ice cream cone in the oven?
A plain cone can be crisped in a 160 °C oven for about 3 minutes; let it cool completely before adding ice cream. Filled cones should not be heated.
How should you store cake and wafer ice cream cones?
Keep them in an airtight tin or sealed packet in a cool, dry cupboard, away from steam and strong smells. Once opened, use them promptly; moisture makes the cones lose their crunch.
What can you put in an ice cream cone besides ice cream?
Use the cone as an edible holder for fruit, yoghurt or small sweets, or crumble it over a sundae. For a crisp party snack, fill it shortly before serving so the filling does not soften it.
What is the difference between a cake cone and a wafer cone?
Cake cones are usually thicker, paler and more sturdy, with a crisp, slightly sweet biscuit-like texture. Wafer cones are thinner and lighter, and can soften or crack more readily once filled.
Can you use a wafer cone instead of a cake cone?
Yes: use either for a scoop of ice cream, but handle wafer cones gently and fill them just before serving. A thicker cake cone is a better choice for a large or heavy scoop.
Are cake and wafer ice cream cones vegan?
Not always: recipes can include milk, eggs or other animal-derived ingredients, while some are made without them. Check the ingredients on the packet if you need a vegan cone.
Do ice cream cones contain gluten?
Most cake and wafer cones are made with wheat flour, so they contain gluten. Choose a cone specifically labelled gluten-free if you need to avoid it.
