  1. How to Draw an Ice Cream Cone

    • 1
      Circle + Triangle = basic shapes for the ice cream cone

      The basic shapes for ice cream cones are a circle (the scoop of ice cream) and a triangle (the sugar cone). Think in terms of the circle on top of the triangle to simplify it.

    • 2

      Draw the cone. Start with a small ellipse at the top of the cone, and draw the sides down to a point as symmetrically as you can.

    • 3

      Now that you have your cone, add the waffle texture by drawing lines diagonally one way and then the other.

    • 4

      Draw your circle on top of the cone, like a ball. add the cloudlike shape at the meeting of the cone and ice cream scoop. For an added ice cream effect, draw a drip of the ice cream melting down the cone.

    How to Draw Ice Cream in a Bowl

    • 5

      Start with a basic bowl shape. Draw the ellipse as in the beginning of drawing the cone, but much wider. Draw a very faint line down the middle of the ellipse. Now draw lines toward the point in curved motion as symmetrically as you can to finish the rest of the bowl.

    • 6

      Faintly draw the scoops inside the bowl for placement. You can draw as many scoops as you'd like.

    • 7

      Now fill in the circles and add details such as a spoon, chocolate syrup (same drippy effect as the cone) and cherries on top, if you'd like.

Tips & Warnings

  • Add multiple scoops for a whimsical effect. Color your ice cream in with colored pencils. Feel free to add as many details as you'd like.
