Hello there, gang. Thanks for hanging in there with me during this Week Of Frilly Fancy Shower Type Recipes And Ideas. 🙂

Next week I’ll be back to my usual posting of What In The World Can I Make To Feed My Ever Hungry Family.

I’ve been cooking up a storm this week and am excited to show you the things I’ve been working on.

Also, I wanted to let you know that the good ladies at Gooseberry Patch are featuring me on their site today. An honor, truly. If you are up for reading a bit more about me and my family, click on over and take a look.

ALRIGHT! Let’s talk Parchment Paper Cones. Sound good?

These fun little cones are perfect way to fancy up a party and work well for holding all kinds of yummy things. I filled mine with Crunchy Caramel Popcorn and White Chocolate Popcorn. (As a little side note: I used Violet Candy Wafers, instead of the called for white chocolate chips in the White Chocolate Popcorn recipe.) 

Let’s make some cones, shall we?

Parchment Paper Cones
You will need:
Parchment Paper 
Ruler
Scissors
Hot Glue Gun
Stapler
Cute Graphics or Stickers
  
1. Grab yourself some parchment paper. I got mine at Walmart, but you can buy it at most grocery stores and anywhere that Wilton products are sold.


2. Cut the parchment paper into 10×10 squares.


3. Starting at the bottom left corner, fold the edge up about 2-3 inches and make a soft crease along the fold.


Fold it again, so that the tip of the first fold is even with the upper left corner.



Fold it again, so that there are about 1 1/2 inches of paper remaining along the right hand side. Notice that the top point (at the left of the picture) has an even amount of paper of either side.


4. Put some hot glue down the entire side of the remaining edge of parchment.


and fold it over so that the glue sticks to the pack of the cone, and press it down with your fingers. 


5.  Slide a stapler into the top of the cone and put one staple into the back. (The part you just hot glued) This is just a precautionary measure. Some of the cones I fastened with only glue, ended up coming apart and people had popcorn falling on their laps. That’s kind of embarrassing , isn’t it.


6. For a cute embellishment, staple or glue a little graphic onto the front. Stickers would also be fun. 
7. Fill the cones with goodies of your choice and place the cones in a pretty basket.
