Question

What should I do to prevent my cones from losing their crunchy texture and tasting stale?

Community Answer

After you have finished baking, use a toothpick to poke a hole in the bottom of each cone. This will let the steam escape and help the cones retain their crunchy texture.

Question

What type of ice cream cone works best?

Community Answer

Any cone that is sturdy and has a large, flat bottom to rest on. The classic cone-shaped ones are harder to use because they do not stand well while baking.

Take caution to not bake your cones too long, as they are really delicate. Also, ensure the temperature for the oven is correct.
