What is a Waffle Cone?
A waffle cone is a type of pastry. It is made out of a thin waffle that has been rolled so as to have a tight point at one end and a large opening at the other. A waffle cone will usually have ice cream, frozen custard, or soft serve placed inside of it. It is considered to be part of the broader ice cream cone family of pastries.

The waffle cone is considered to be the original style of ice cream cone. Street vendors in New York City are rumored to have started selling ice cream in various types of edible bowls and cups in the 1890s; the ice cream cone, however, did not become popular until the Louisiana Purchase Exposition in 1904. The event, also known as the St. Louis World’s Fair, was where ice cream cones became known to the world.
