Instructions
Last year I made candy cones for Halloween & Christmas. This year I custom designed some for a friend of mine to give out as wedding favours. Four of us spent several hours putting together over 100 of them to be filled with sugared almonds. So, this Christmas I have designed them around my winter woodland theme and filled them with hand-made nut shaped chocolates with creamy maple centres.
Have a sweet day!

Instructions
- Open cone print template (see image below) and print it out.
- Cut around cone wrapper and along lines to give 3 wrappers. (I use the shape mates large circle and cutter to cut out my circles.
- Roll one of the wrappers into a cone shape and, using double sided tape, fix in place.
- Place a second piece of tape inside the cone along one side and peel off backing.
