- Prepare the witch hats: Turn the chocolate ice cream cones upside down and pipe or spread a layer of black icing on the inverted cone.
- Assemble the witch hats: Place the coated cones carefully upright on top of each frosted cupcake.
- Add seasonal flair: Finish off your witch hats by placing candy corn or other decorations around the base of the cone or on top of the icing.
