Notes
Chocolate: Melt chocolate slowly and gently in the microwave, stirring regularly at 15 - 20 second intervals.
Butter: Don't skip butter while melting chocolate, as it helps create a smooth, glossy finish.
Cut Fruits: Cut fruits into bite-sized pieces so they fit comfortably inside the cone.
Firm Fruits: Try fruits that are ripe but still firm. Avoid mushy or overly soft ones, as they can make the cone soggy.
Serve Upright: Use a cone stand, jar or cupcake tray to keep cones standing and help while filling.
