Why Snowdon

We are simply the “best!”

We love what we do and we love making fantastic cones that provide so much fun and enjoyment for children and adults alike.  The joy you see in the eyes of people when they have an ice cream in a Snowdon Ice Cream cone, is an image of pure delight.  

Our customers often tell us they had never thought about where this iconic Kiwi treat comes from.  New Zealand Cone Bakers (Snowdon) is a proudly New Zealand based, owned and operated business, employing wonderful Kiwi’s to bake great cones for other Kiwis to enjoy, all year round.

Not only do we source the majority of our raw materials from New Zealand, but we also pride ourselves on minimising our waste.  Cones that don’t get through our quality control process are collected and utilised as animal feed for local farmers.  Lucky animals!

Snowdon cones are made to be enjoyed. When was the last time you ate an ice cream? Was it a special treat, a lovely cooling snack on a hot day? Did it include the romantic entwining of arms as you jointly eat your ice-creams, racing off to the beach in your combi van – surf boards stacked high, or maybe just sitting and watching the view from a beach-side park bench? Whenever you eat your ice cream in a cone, the team at Snowdon love being in the business of making sweet memories for everyone to enjoy.

Right now, we could be in the kitchen conjuring up all sorts of things right here in NZ, especially for you! Whether it be better batters, new flavours, better mould designs, experimenting with different cook temperatures and oven times, we’ll be here continually making improvements and upgrades, for years to come.

Any time is a great time for an
