There is an Italian dessert where sweetened marscapone (a type of cream
cheese) is forced into a rolled wafer. IIRC, I have seen a reference to
this in relation to the 18th Century being prepared as a conical tube
referred to as a cone.
The sugar cone has a sealed point which makes it an actual cone rather than
a conic section. The above article while probably precisely correct, leaves
a lot of slack as it does not define the term cone.
