First Ice Cream Cone in St. Louis Exposition
Ice cream cone was seen in the famous St. Louis, Missouri, Exposition for the first time in 1904. Exhibition grounds spread over 1270 acres.
The show ran an extended period for months. On 22nd September 1904 a vendor ran short of dishes. The next shop a waffle manufacturer Ernest Hamwi got the idea of serving the ice cream in a waffle. A great idea was born to serve the ice cream in a cone shaped edible waffle.
In this exhibition, there were more than 50 ice cream cones made by a group of people together.
Nobody knows who made the first cone. Many people claim that they were first to do so in the America.
Lebanese settler Abe Domar had manufactured the cone making machine after 1904, but the ice cream cone making machine got patent in 1920. License number: 1,342,045 issued June 1, 1920 Inventor: Ernest A. Hamwi
Today, the famed Joy ice Creme Cone Company of Hermitage, PA manufacture over 1.5 billion ice cream cones every year ( 2009)
