Ingredients
- The amount of ingredients really depends on the number of cups you're making:
- Cone-shaped ice cream cone; if possible, choose a wide-mouthed cone
- Cookies are round; You can also use round biscuits that have a slightly higher edge than the center; Cookies or biscuits in this shape are suitable as coasters.
- Ring shaped jelly candy
- Icing to decorate the cake
- Snacks to fill the cup like candy, chocolate, nuts, mini wafers, etc.
Step
Step 1. Split the ice cream cone
To do this, place the cone on the table horizontally, then gently cut it with a bread knife.
Some types of ice cream cones will crack or crumble when cut. If this situation occurs, don't worry too much and immediately switch to another cone
Step 2. Glue the jelly candy to the surface of the cookie using icing
Step 3. Glue the cup body made of ice cream cone to the jelly candy using icing
Step 4. Make the handle of the cup using half of the jelly candy
Glue the cup handles with icing.
Step 5. Wait for the icing to dry
Once the icing has dried and each layer of the cup has adhered perfectly, you can fill it with candy, chocolate, or other delicious treats.
Step 6. Repeat the process until the desired number of cups is reached
If you are making a large number of cups, enlist the help of your friends to speed up the process. For example, a friend of yours is in charge of sticking candy to cookies, another friend is in charge of cutting cups, another friend is in charge of glueing cup handles, and so on. Besides being able to speed up the process, this is also an interesting part of the process of setting up a party with the people closest to you.
Step 7. Serve your delicious little cup
Get creative with your own presentation or follow the suggestions listed below:
- Arrange the cups on a serving plate lined with beautiful fabric, then place it on your dining table.
- Place the cup on the actual coaster; serve in individual portions.
- Place the cup on a paper mat before serving it on the table.
- Arrange the cups in a cake display case or cupcake base.
Tips
- To make the cup filling look like coffee, hot chocolate, or another of your favorite drinks, try filling the cup with ice cream that has a similar taste and serving it to guests right away.
- If you're making your own cookies, make sure they're smooth and uniform in size to keep your cup looking beautiful.
- To make cutting the jelly candy easier, try dipping the knife in hot water first; the hot temperature prevents the candy from sticking to the knife. Candy that is warm or at room temperature is also softer and more sticky, making it more difficult to cut; therefore, you can also store the candy in the refrigerator before cutting it.
