These Dripless Ice Cream Cone Macarons are a Playful Take on the French Dessert

— July 12, 2012 — Lifestyle
Enjoy the sweet taste of France in a cute and kitschy format with these wildly adorable Ice Cream Cone Macarons. The classic refined sugary sandwich has been molded into one of the most beloved emblems of childhood: the ice cream cone. Blogger Steph (from the beautiful blog 'Raspberri Cupcakes') has gotten crafty with macarons before. Prior to these sprinkled creations, Steph transformed these no-nonsense french confections into darling doughnuts.

Aside from their unique shape, these Ice Cream Cone Macarons also sport a dollop of intriguing frosting. In between two of these cone-shaped shells is a velvety layer of waffle cone icing. Yes, that does mean icing infused with waffle cone pieces. To finish these treats off, Steph added a smattering of vibrant rainbow sprinkles.

Playful, delicate and tasty to boot, these intriguing macarons may not be traditional, but they are irresistibly cute.
