We made these for my daughter''s pool party last year. They were a big hit even without the bug toppings. We just decorated with frosting and sprinkles. The only problem was transporting the cones without knocking them over. This year, we made them again, but this time we cut circles out of thin cardboard box lids. The cones sit right in and didn''t fall over on the ride to the pool.
