Process for preparing a cornet consisting of a substantially conical wafer(22) prior to the filling of said cornet with an ice-cream; in order topreserve the crunchy nature of the wafer, the inner wall of the cornet issprayed with liquid chocolate (23); this chocolate solidifies rapidly in orderto form a coating layer for separating the wafer and the ice-cream. Theprocess is characterized in that the inside of the cornet is sprayed with anexcess quantity of chocolate to guarantee that no coating-gap zone remains onthe inner wall of the wafer, the excess liquid chocolate collecting, undergravity, at the bottom tip of the corner; prior to solidification of saidexcess, the excess is sucked out of the cornet, subsequent solidification ofthe coating layer thus making it possible to establish a continuous barrierover the inner wall of the wafer.
