ABSTRACT:
A method of making a tortilla cone with a closed apex, and including a kit to help facilitate the operation so that a large number of tortilla cones may be formed and cooked at one time. The kit and method of using it includes a set of cone forming molds each consisting of a pliable metallic conical body having an overlapping convex surface about which a tortilla patty may be positioned and wrapped in cone form so as to close the cone form at its apex. The method of using the kit includes using a first mold as a female receptacle and using a second mold as both a female and male receptacle to wrap a tortilla patty to the mold and secure the same between the two molds. An inventive method of making the taco cone mold includes taking a sheet of thin pliable metallic material, such as aluminum, and cutting out a circular disc from the sheet. The pliable disc is then formed into a cone-shaped cylinder by wrapping the disc around a cone shaped dowel so that a pair of its sides overlap. The cone shaped disc is then removed from the dowel and is ready for use in the kit.
