Ok there are numerous posts on making ice cream cone cupcakes. I have a question though that didnt get covered. I want to make Christmas tree cupcakes baked in cones. I figure there is no other cupcake pan shaped that way ( I did see the idea posted a few times to stack a couple of cupcakes and carve into cone shape but for the amount I'm doing that seems labour intensive). So can I remove the cupcake after it's bakedin the cone? i dont want the ice cream cone on there after

thanks

what if you turned them around? you won't be able to bake in the pointy cones, but you can bake in the flat bottomed cones...


if you don't over fill the cones you can turn them upside down and maybe if you bake some mini cupcakes to go along with them you can remove the paper off the mini cupcakes and put them on top of the narrow flat bottom of the cone cupcakes, then you can eighter fill in with icing or carve them into a poing?

How does that sound to you?

The othther hand you can just build it up with buttercream if you don't care how much icing it has..

Have you thought about maybe shaping the cone out of some heavy duty foil? I'd grease and flour it also. You could even crinkle it a bit to help with the tree shape/look. If you try it, I'd like to know if it works.
Just a thought.

The cones need a flat bottom to stand up in the oven...

Maybe if you baked them on a rack like a cooling rack, you could stand the pointy cones up in the oven (by using the foil). Might work icon_smile.gif Stranger things have happened!! LOL

Or better yet... What about using a sugar cone and putting a cone of parchment paper in it. Then stand the cone up like I mentioned with the cooling rack. The sugar cone would be more secure than the foil I believe.
I think I may try this for my ginger bread house icon_smile.gif
