{Nestle Drumsticks Fun Facts}
- In 1928, the Parker brothers zipped up the cone concept with a chocolate coating and nuts. One of their wives thought it looked like a fried chicken leg, so they called it a drumstick.
- Today, Nestle Drumstick cones are topped with peanuts, sprinkles, chocolate cookies and even pretzel bits.
- Nestle Drumstick variety packs are just an awesome way to try different flavors without committing to an entire box. Available in Classic, Simply Dipped and Cookie Dipped.
{Why We Love Nestle Drumstick Cones}
We have been a big fan of Nestle Drumstick cones for a long long time. I can still remember having them as a child and they have become a special summer treat for my boys as they have grown up. Oh, who am I kidding? Forget summer, they have become an all year long treat, but they are especially enjoyable when the heat of the Florida sun starts getting to you.
One of the things I love most about them is that they cut down on the mess. I am not a mess loving mom in most cases and my youngest can take forever to eat an ice cream cone. The neat zipped up appeal that Nestle Drumsticks offer is a welcome relief from other more easily melted options.
Everyone has their own personal favorite, so we usually end up buying variety packs. My personal favorite are the traditional dipped vanilla caramel cones, but the boys love the cookie dipped cookies and cream ones. However, I recently learned there are Sprinkled cones and I have a feeling those are going to be a new favorite with the boys once I pick them up.
You can visit the Nestle Drumsticks site for more information on the wide variety of flavors and products available, as well as to enter their special Summer Sweepstakes! Want to know my favorite part of a Nestle Drumstick cone though? It is that one final chocolatey bite you are rewarded with at the bottom of the cone. I look forward to it every time.
