Nice, right?

Good news:making a cupcake cone is very simple. You need a wafer cone with a flat bottom (logical), which you place in a muffin pan. Then we give free rein to our imagination!

Be careful:do not exceed half of the cone because the cake will rise a little, and the goal is to be able to create the illusion of an ice cream with the icing. Then bake at 180°C for 30 minutes. Then comes the moment of icing:there, ditto, we give our cupcakes the appearance we want:multicolored, pastels... We are the chef!
