Conemaker

/ˈkoʊnˌmeɪkər/ noun

Definition

A person or factory that manufactures cones, such as ice cream cones, traffic cones, or industrial cone-shaped products.

Etymology

From 'cone' plus 'maker,' a compound word formed by the productive English pattern of combining 'maker' with any object to indicate someone who creates that object.

Kelly Says

The ice cream cone was invented by accident when an ice cream vendor ran out of dishes and rolled waffle cookies into cone shapes at the 1904 World's Fair—now cone makers are a multi-million dollar industry!
