The combination of crispy wafers and chocolate is always delicious! A new trend is now conquering the confectionery market: Micro Cones! The small cone tips filled with chocolate look and taste like the tip of an ice cream cone. Since many people consider this to be the best part of the ice cream experience it is even better to have a whole stand-up pouch filled with cone tips. But how to shorten them without too much waste?

Walterwerk Kiel, specialised in the production of wafer baking machines, developed a special micro cone device for the production of these products. The component is retrofittable for Walter mini cone machines already in the market. “Our customers can increase their product range now with little effort which makes the machines even more flexible,” explains Markus Bartels, general manager at Walter. “Thanks to our modular system we can offer customised solutions. The new micro cone device is another interesting feature in our portfolio.” ProSweets Cologne was the perfect opportunity for Walter to share detailed information with interested trade visitors. Let’s see how the micro cone trend will develop in the next months.
