1
Unwrap one ice cream cone from the box. You can choose a waffle cone or a sugar cone. This method works for both.

2
Place a few mini marshmallows at the bottom of the ice cream cone. You can also use one whole marshmallow at the bottom of a sugar cone; these cones usually have a wider and flatter base. The marshmallows will create a barrier between the ice cream and the cone, absorbing some of the ice cream that begins to melt. You can also use small chocolate candies (such as M&Ms) to prevent ice cream from dripping.
