19世纪末，冰淇淋小贩采用可重复使用的玻璃杯（称为"penny licks"）售卖冰淇淋，但这种方式存在严重的卫生隐患和破损问题1。伦敦在1898年率先禁止了这种做法1。为了解决这一困境，美国移民开始探索新的方案。1902年，意大利移民安东尼奥·瓦尔沃纳（Antonio Valvona）获得了可食用蛋筒杯的美国金属模具专利，次年纽约冰淇淋小贩伊塔洛·马尔基奥尼（Italo Marchiony）也获得了类似装置的专利1。
现代冰淇淋筒的真正突破出现在1904年的圣路易斯世界博览会上1。当时年仅20岁的叙利亚移民欧内斯特·哈姆维（Ernest Hamwi）将他制作的油炸糕点卷成锥形，与黎巴嫩冰淇淋小贩阿尔伯特·阿布西（Albert Aboussie）合作，创造出现代冰淇淋筒的雏形1。1910年，术语被简化为"cone"1。如今，1918年成立的Joy Baking Group每年生产20亿个蛋筒1。
The modern ice-cream cone emerged from the ingenuity of immigrant entrepreneurs in the early 20th century. In the late 19th century, street vendors sold ice cream in reusable glass cups known as "penny licks," but these posed hygiene and breakage concerns.1 To address these problems, Italian immigrant Antonio Valvona patented an edible waffle cup in 1902, followed by New York ice-cream vendor Italo Marchiony, who secured a patent for a similar device in 1903.1
The definitive innovation came at the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair, where twenty-year-old Syrian immigrant Ernest Hamwi rolled his fried pastry into a cone shape and partnered with Lebanese ice-cream vendor Albert Aboussie to create what would become the modern ice-cream cone.1 The vessel was originally called "cornucopia" before being simplified to "cone" in 1910.1 The cone design proved so successful that the Joy Baking Group, established in 1918, now produces 2 billion cones annually.1
