Today we made ice cream cones!!!!
I’m so glad, because I could NOT think of an idea for the blog this week :0) — And then, suddenly….yesterday, I had ice cream on my mind…lots of ice cream! :0)
This theme is perfect for summer parties and the best part of all is that they are so quick to make! The most time consuming part is tinting the frosting.
Plus, there are no worries of making the icing super smooth because ice cream is kind of swirly & lumpy-bumpy–hooray!
Here’s what I did…
First, I cut notches out of some waffle cones so that once flipped, the cones would lie pretty flat on my cake board. It’s best to saw your cones with a serrated knife. It’s a little tricky, but not too bad…I broke one though! :0)
We could have used one wide board but we decided we liked the look of three narrow ones better…
We used confetti sprinkles, mini chocolate chips, & toffee bits for decorations.
That’s all there is to it!! I made three tall ice cream cones for a total of 16…but wouldn’t it be fun to make a super long cone the length of the picnic table? Maybe another time…. But for now, these happy little ice cream cones make me smile… :0) — 
Thanks for stopping by the blog!!! Have a great weekend!

Thanks so much everybody! Trish, I’m sure that you could do the same with mini cupcakes—how cute! I would just saw off the top half of the cone (give or take), so you would have a shorter , cute little cone to work with :0)

I have been scanning through your blog as I waited on my pressure cooker to finish…I laid down my butter and sugar for a short stint with fresh veggies. I just wanted to tell you how very much I have enjoyed your blog (went back to last December) and express how gifted and blessed you are to have such talent. Thank you for sharing.
So very very brilliant. I just adore this idea. I posted a link on EdibleCrafts.CraftGossip.com (spotted on pinterest).
This is one of the cutest cupcake ideas I have ever seen. I just saw it over at Edible Crafts and had to stop by to see what else you have created.
This is fantastic! Do you know the iPod app “Scoops”? It’s just like that!
This looks incredible

LOVE these!!! I have decided to do an Ice Cream themed party for my nieces birthday next month just because I HAVE to make this! lol! Can’t wait to give it a go! Thank you for this amazing idea.
I am not a cakey, sweet-making, baking or very creative/talented in the kitchen at all but I might could actually do this, and might even want to try (which is also highly unusual). Wow! Thanks for a great blog and cake/party/shower idea that would not cost a fortune and could feed however many you needed it to. I will definitely be bookmarking this page. You rock!!
Holy Smokes! You are awesome! I am going to try this idea this coming weekend for my son’s 5th birtdhay. I was going to attempt a star wars cake but this would be great with light sabers as the theme ! Thank you for sharing!
These are the sweetest, I am going to have to try this, wish it would turn out as beautiful as yours!
I absolutely adore this! I am doing an ice cream theme for my daughter’s bday this weekend and was still trying to decide on the cake! Thank you so much!!!
This is AMAZING! LOVE IT! So glad my daughter just happened to tell me a couple days ago that she wants an ice cream birthday party next year…otherwise I may have tried talking her into one after seeing this!
