I can make you ice cream, we can be a sweet team


The boring stuff you need to know...
Turn the oven onto 180 degrees before you become a messy nelly. And make sure you grab out some foil. Cake mixture on your kitchen cupboards is no fun. This mixture makes about 12 - 16 (this is a guess.. and don't be sad if it's less!) and they normally cook for 15 minutes or so. But because I am a rebel, I just go with the flow. And when my knife is clean, I know they're ready!
So look at all the blurry photos (it's hard snapping whilst baking) for your step by step(ish) guide! 
And unlucky if you don't have a dishwasher!


And that is how you make these delightfully looking cupcakes. I also want to mention that I mean mix it in a nice big bowL not a bow. That would just be silly. And unless you like burning things, I highly advise you wrap the cones in foil to keep them nice looking. They may like the heat, but they really don't like sun burn.
Serve them with a nice cup of tea and enjoy the mess people make when attempting to eat these..!

PeeEss - Completely off subject from cakes. Shoes (shoes and cakes should be enjoyed together!) but I designed a simple shoe on Nelly. I'd appreciate it if you voted for it here.. only if you like it OF COURSE. Or that would be silly!

  3. These are awesome! I've never seen anything like that before, such a good idea! How long do you bake them for/what temp? xxx

    1. I normally just go with it really. I put the oven at 180 degrees, and they're supposed to bake for 10 - 12 minutes, but because they're wrapped in foil they take longer. I'd say a good 15 - 20 minutes. Just keep an eye on them :)

    1. haha! i did add it in later at the top! i normally just go with whatever really. because they're in cones they take longer to cook... i think it's between 15 - 20 minutes, but obviously just by doing the old knife test :) and yes the mixture goes into the cones to cook!x

  24. Very cute! As the daughter of a Baker, I am very impressed!
