the World Cone (월드콘) lineup right now is bigger than I thought

World Cone is the classic Korean convenience store ice cream cone. Chocolate and vanilla, nuts on top, chocolate hiding in the tip. I just found out how many versions exist now.

Cherry Berry, a Nonsan strawberry one (Nonsan is a strawberry town in Korea), hazelnut banana, an XQ cookie version, apple, and the original choco vanilla. Korean community people are arguing about which one is 1티어, top tier. My honest verdict, having only had the original from the Korean mart here in Helsinki: the original is the one I'd defend. The chocolate at the bottom of the cone is the whole reason anyone buys a cone, and I don't trust fruit to beat that. The Nonsan strawberry is the only one that makes me curious, because when a town puts its name on the wrapper it usually means they're proud of it. The apple one though. *screams* Who asked for an apple cone. I'd still buy it once just so I can complain properly.

the original has the chocolate hiding in the tip. none of the new ones get an ending like that

does the Nonsan one actually taste like strawberry or just pink? most strawberry ice cream I've had is strawberry milk with a good publicist

In Korea people also fight World Cone vs Brabo cone. Different cone, same war

a Nonsan strawberry cone sounds dangerous for my wallet. I'll be tasting it, purely for science

Original choco vanilla, end of discussion. Every new flavor is a side quest

An apple cone is the core of a bad idea. Sorry. Not sorry

apple cone is a salad that got ideas

Apple cone had one job and it was to be a-peeling.

Brabo people are loud but World Cone people are right

Devil's advocate: Cherry Berry would win in August and you all know it

↳
6Dohyun2026.10.08

Cherry Berry wins August on paper. The original wins every month, because that chocolate in the tip is the only structural engineering any cone has ever had

6sarkasmus2026.10.08

Six versions of the cone and the thread still votes for the original. The marketing department must be thrilled.

3Fah2026.10.08

the chocolate in the tip is the only reason I finish a cone. nobody told me there were six versions now, I feel behind

5Lucia2026.10.08

I'm crying, six versions and I only know the original. do I have to try all six before I'm allowed an opinion

5Tariq2026.10.08

six flavors and the original still wins. like a club buying six strikers and playing the academy kid every week

6b1ue_hour2026.10.08

grew up on the original so the new ones feel like cover versions. the chocolate in the tip is still the lead single

5Matías2026.10.08

six versions of one cone usually means the original got nervous. in Argentina we'd just add dulce de leche and call it a day

7Dahye2026.10.09

cherry berry gets a pass from me just for the name. but the tip rule stands: a cone with no surprise at the bottom is cold cream in a hat

5Tenzin2026.10.09

티어 (tier) is borrowed from gaming, so 'which cone is 1티어' is just a tier list. the original is S-tier, I assume
