Did you know that my son is 8-years old and he's NEVER had a waffle cone before? To be honest, I don't think he is that broken up about it, but a part of me is annoyed every time we go to an ice cream shop and either have to bring our own tasteless gf wafer cone or opt for a cup. Mind you, he doesn't care... but I do. Soooo, when I got into making ice cream last year, I was lucky enough to get a waffle cone maker for my birthday.
