I posted this message some time ago, and thought I'd sent the summary, but
just found it in my outbox.  There were a few other responses which came
after I'd written this that didn't get incorporated.  Sorry!

"I just found a waffle ice cream cone maker at this website:
http://www.kitchenetc.com/Products.cfm?sku=000858571&trackingid=NL062802
Has anyone tried using one of these?  It's $50 but knowing that this
product is available, perhaps it's possible to find less expensive
sources.  Theres a  recipe in the archives that suggests using a krumkake
iron (or taking the batter to an ice cream shop to have them make the
cones).  This device might  pay for itself in a short time:  a box of cones
I bought yesterday cost $7!"

A few people asked what brand ice cream cone I bought and where- they're
Barkat and I found them at our great Wegman's supermarket here in NY state.
I ate a whole pint of Haagen Daas over the weekend without trying it in a
cone, so I have to say I haven't tried them yet.  I wish I could keep them
fresh in the car so I could get a cone from an ice cream shop whenever the
mood arose!

Here are posts in response to the query about the waffle cone maker- people
did indeed find them more cheaply elsewhere, and found a pizzelle maker as
an alternative:

I have one and love it! I bought mine at Fred Meyers for $25 so check
around first.

I saw a waffle cone maker at WalMart about 6 weeks ago in their seasonal
items isles. I was so tempted to get it!!! I don't remember the cost but I
don't think it was $50 and of course WalMart usually beats anybody elses
prices.

I bought a Rival waffle cone maker at Wal Mart for $19.99. It comes with a
recipe that works! Just add some xanthan gum and gelatin, perhaps a little
extra baking soda. But be careful! You may find yourself making them daily.
They taste good! But, you MUST put them in airtight plastic
container/baggie when they cool, as they don't hold up well for long in the
open air.

They come with their own plastic cone you wrap the waffle around. Fun and
easy!

My gluten eating husband says they don't taste like they are missing anything

If you have a pizzelle maker you can make pizzelles using cornstarch instead
of wheat flour. When the cookie comes out it is pliable. Roll into cone
shape and secure with a clothespin. To plug the "hole" in the bottom of the
cone - stick a miniature marshmallow in before adding the ice cream. (This
idea was attributed to Martha Stewart in another e-mail I received).

I bought a pizzelle (?--thin Italian cookies, I believe) maker some time ago
that said it could be used for waffle comes.  Unfortunately, I haven't tried
it yet... Found it it Walmart on clearance at Christmas for about $6...It has
teflon grids w/ a flower pattern & should work.  -

Thanks, folks-
