Strawberry Lemonade Cupcakes in a Cone Recipe

What is a cone cake?

A cone cake is a cupcake baked into an ice cream cone. During baking and decorating it’s often challenging to get all of the cones to remain upright. The chances are good that you’ll end up with an unfortunate magical mess.

Enter Yippee Cone Cakes bases. The bases assure your cakes will behave themselves throughout the process. The bases keep the cones standing during baking, decorating, and serving. They may even catch drips to save some mess. Plus, they are pretty and add extra color to your masterpiece.

Kari worked with Yippee on her Chocolate Covered Strawberry Valentine Cone Cakes and was so happy with them that she was eager to do one for our blog, as well!

Cupcakes in a cone are easier to eat with less mess at parties. Since the container is edible, just take off the base and chow down. For kids, it’s easier to hold the cone than try to remove a traditional cupcake wrapper. Maybe even prevent an extra bath time? No promises here, but cone cakes are definitely more fun to eat.

    I love the idea of making cupcakes in a cone for my 2 granddaughters’ birthday parties instead of a cake. These bases are perfect to keep them from tipping over. I like the mini dots bases.

    I have never tried making these before but I have seen them. I think I’m going to see if my daughter is interested in having these for her next bday so I can try my hand at making them!

    I’ve made cupcakes in ice cream cones for over 40 years now. Always made them using round cake pans with the ice cream cones nestled together. Yes, they often don’t cooperate, but in time mastered it. However, these holders look perfect and I like the fact that they add to the display of the cakes when serving. Bookmarked their website and would love to win a set to try them out first.

    My daughter’s birthday next month and these would be so perfect instead of just making a cake like I usually do.

    I made cupcake cones many years ago and it was such a mess I never made them again. But after seeing this recipe and the cone cake bases to hold them, I am going to try them again. Holding the cones up so they didn’t fall over was the main reason I didn’t like making them. It was such a mess. These will make such a treat for my grandchildren on Easter.
