# Cone-Like Cups This Set of Ice Cream Cone Dessert Bowls from Dirtkicker Pottery is the Right Fit By Peter Vallas | Published 2011-06-15 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dirtkicker-pottery References: [thefancy](http://www.thefancy.com/things/251040669/Ice-Cream-Cone-Dessert-Bowls) & [etsy](http://www.etsy.com/people/DirtKicker?ref=ls_profile) Dirtkicker Pottery is a company created by a designer named Cindy who enjoys every aspect of creating pottery. She uses her [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3dprinted-cookie-cutters) account to showcase the designs and sell her beautiful, handmade creations. The latest from Dirtkicker Pottery is a series of bowls that look almost exactly like [ice cream cones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drumstick-bites). The bowls were crafted using a pottery wheel and smooth stoneware clay. Once hardened, the clay is great for repeated use and is even dishwasher safe, making it perfect if you have a sweet tooth. Because the bowls are not easy to make, they are more pricey than most and come in few quantities. I may have to say that owning a set of these would be pretty awesome. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.2/10 - Popularity: 38% | Activity: 19% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Kitchen](https://www.trendhunter.com/kitchen) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Unique Pottery:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Exploring innovative techniques and materials for pottery creation to create unique and eye-catching designs. - **Novelty Tableware:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Developing unconventional tableware designs that mimic popular food items to add a playful and engaging element to dining experiences. - **High-quality Dishware:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Experimenting with durable and dishwasher-safe clay materials to create long-lasting and easy-to-use dishware for everyday use. ### Who This Affects Most - **Artisan Pottery:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Leveraging advanced pottery techniques and technologies to elevate the craft and appeal to a wider audience. - **Home Decor:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introducing unique and visually appealing pottery designs to enhance home decor aesthetics and offer personalized styling options. - **Hospitality:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Collaborating with restaurants and cafes to create custom-designed tableware that adds an element of surprise and delight to the dining experience. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Retro-Inspired Wave Bowls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retro-wave-bowl.md) - [Handmade Dessert Plates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carolina-k.md) - [Peanut-Filled Dessert Pies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/waffle-cone-pie.md) - [Ganache-Filled Dessert Cones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/truffle-cones.md) - [Imperfect Pasta Bowl Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pasta-bowl.md) - [Gummy-Made Ice Cream Cones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mojoz-gummicone.md) - [Butter Cookie-Based Cones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/butter-cookie-cones.md) - [Cookie-Covered Ice Cream Cones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crunchin-cookie-dipped-cone.md) - [Dynamic Colored Glass Bowls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tip-top-glass.md)
