Best Waffle Cone: America's Choice Waffle Cones

A generously-sized take on the classic waffle cone, this one is crunchy and toasted to perfection. It would pair best with a heavy, textured ice cream, like our fig variation. _America’s Choice Waffle Cones, $2.49 at A&P

Best Specialty Cone: Nabisco Oreo Cones

While not an exact replica of its cookie counterpart, this Oreo cone lends the right amount of chocolaty-goodness to rich, chocolate ice cream. Try it with Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams Darkest Chocolate Ice Cream in the World. Nabisco Oreo Cones, at your local supermarket.

Best Sugar Cone: Nabisco, Comet Sugar Cones

Small yet sturdy, and faintly sweet, this cone is perfect for less sugary desserts like our Basil Gelato. Comet Sugar Cones, at your local supermarket.
