I have tried them all and Nestle Drumsticks are the best ice cream cone in the store. They are fresh - the nuts and cone are always crunchy - not soft. I always buy these cones now no matter what the price comparision is as I finally learned you get what you pay for. These are worth the price - as close as you can get without going to he ice cream stand for a cone. Once you buy Nestle Drumsticks, you will never go back to any other brand. Great for any occaision - parties, desserts, just because, etc.
