Boy, did this give me more trouble than I expected. Everything was going perfectly until I started layering the bc on top of the cone and due to the heaviness, the top part of the cone started collapsing. I had to scrape off the bc, remove the top tier, refondant it and decided to use styrofoam for the shape of the ice cream, then cover that with bc. Worked out MUCH better! Four 6" rounds and three 8" rounds make up the cone. Covered in fondant and airbrushed. :-)
