Hello!
My name is Joanna and my sorority, alpha Kappa Delta Phi really loves this photo of the hot cocoa cones. My sorority is having a fundraiser using your photos as inspiration and we were wondering if we could use your photos to help promote our event!
It would really mean a lot for us! We can leave credit for your photos if you allow us to use them!
Please get back to me at your earliest convenience. Thank you so much!!
Best,
Joanna

What a brilliant idea! These are super cute gifts. Thanks for sharing with us at Merry Monday.
Shannah says
Do these use 12 or 16 inch piping bags? These are adorable!!!
Melissa says
We use the 12 inch piping bags
Kelsey says
Which size piping bags did you use by chance?
Melissa says
We used 12 inch piping bags. Here are a link to some to check out.
Paige says
Adorable! We are making these for teacher gifts this year. I wanted to leave a comment for other readers to explore bags other than Wilton brand. The Wilton brand bags have their logo stamped on them, along with a recycle symbol. I don’t know if off brand bags do or do not. We are making the Wilton brand bags work, but it makes the creation a little more cumbersome, having to hide those logos.
Melissa says
That is a good tip. I will look to see if I can link to some other bags. Thanks!
Madison says

Really cute & super easy to make. Here’s a little tip…. Cut open the cocoa mix. Put the frosting bag all the way over the cocoa mix bag so that you have the cocoa mix as far down into the frosting bag as possible. Then turn the whole thing upside down to empty the cocoa into the bag. This prevents you from getting cocoa dust all over the inside of the bag. I only used one bag per reindeer since the frosting bags were in short supply. It still worked great!! Enjoy!! I made these for our end of the year Volunteer Appreciation brunch! Dec 2021
