Homemade Ice Cream Cones {mini}
Making your own ice cream cones is fun and economical. The added benefit is no junky chemicals and guaranteed sweet dreams. Who doesn't like going to bed in a home that smells like an old fashioned candy store?
Pizzelle makers can be found at Thrift stores and garage sales for the perfect price. Who knows, your Grandma might just have one sitting around!

ReplyDeleteGreat photos and yummy cones! I wish I had one of those cone makers. Maybe when I get my ice cream maker. Thanks for linking at Vegetarian Foodie Fridays!
ReplyDeleteNow I'm almost crying I don't own a pizzelle maker - homemade cones must be delicious. I hate these tasting-like-a-piece-of-paper storebought cones. I hope I'll be able to buy the maker somewhere :)
