Our team of culinary experts showed us step-by-step how they make the delicious cones that enhances the Baskin-Robbins experience guests love and expect. From original waffle cones or waffle bowls to Fancy Waffle Cones that are topped with chocolate, sprinkles or nuts, the waffle cone is something that takes love and care to create. Keep reading for the inside scoop on how these fresh-made waffle cones are crafted.
To begin, team members at your local Baskin-Robbins combine our special waffle cone recipe and water and mix in a bowl until there’s a smooth consistency.
Then, they carefully put one ladle of the batter onto a waffle iron, spreading from one edge to the other.
Once fully cooked, the team then removes the waffle from the iron and roll it into the cone shape using a waffle cone mandrel.
To make this a Baskin-Robbins Fancy Waffle Cone, the team then dips the cone into melted chocolate.
To make the Fancy Waffle Cone even more special, while the chocolate is still warm, our team tops the waffle cone with sprinkles or nuts (optional).
