To make a paper cone, all you need is some parchment paper, which comes in sheets, rolls, or triangles. If your parchment paper is already in the shape of a triangle, skip to step 3. Otherwise, fold it into a long, lopsided triangle. Exact measurements don't matter, but aim for something with a base of approximately 17", a long arm of 15", and a short arm of 7".
