FAQs

Can I use fresh peaches instead of canned?

Yes, I can use fresh peaches. I cook them down with a bit of sugar and water to create a syrupy consistency.

How can I make the cones more stable?

I wrap the bottom of each cone in foil to prevent leaking while serving.

Can I make these cones ahead of time?

Yes, I prepare them a few hours in advance and refrigerate until serving.

What other toppings can I add?

I add whipped cream, a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar, or even a cherry on top for a more festive look.

Can I freeze the cones for later?

I don't recommend freezing them, as the texture of the cone and filling may change upon thawing.
