The first ice cream cone was introduced at the St. Louis World's Fair in 1904. Ernest Hamwi, a waffle vendor at the Fair, began filling his waffles with a nearby ice cream vendor's ice cream. The ice cream cone was born. Hamwi later founded the Missouri Cone Company which grew to be one of the largest ice cream cone makers in the United States.
