Cornetto Logo and Tagline

Cornetto, meaning “little horn” in Italian, is an Italian brand of frozen dessert cone, the manufacturer is owned by the Anglo-Dutch company Unilever. For a long time, the idea of selling frozen ice-cream cones had been impractical, as the ice cream would soak into the moist cone during the manufacturing process and make it soggy and unpalatable when served. In 1959, Spica, an Italian ice-cream manufacturer based in Naples, overcame this problem by insulating the inside of the waffle cone from the ice cream with a coating of oil, sugar, and chocolate.
