Abstract

holder for a one pint ice cream container with a first conically shaped receptacle constructed of rigid injection molded plastic and a second conically shaped receptacle constructed of rigid injection molded plastic. The top of the second receptacle fits within the bottom inside diameter of the first receptacle. A bayonet type fitting locks the two receptacles together. The first receptacle is lined with insulating material. The final inside diameter of the first receptacle corresponds with the outside diameter of a standard one pint ice cream container. The exterior of the first receptacle and the second receptacle have a waffle like pattern and tan color resembling a standard waffle type ice cream cone. The user can either eat the ice cream from the simulated cone or can eat it from the first receptacle while it is sitting on a table.
