Can anyone identify these and what they are for?

![URL removed]

I aquired this set of four. They are glazed ceramic and look like small ice cream cones. They are 2 1/2" tall X 2" across and have no markings.

Any help would be great.

I saw this just now and immediately knew what cmom posted earlier. They’re quite common inventory available at iKEA

Maybe small herb pots. Just guessing though. Would they work as egg or custard cups?

Could they be for baking those “ice cream cone” cakes? To hold the cone part and then you pour the batter inside to bake?

I think Mrsdinkerson is correct is her idea of what these are

That’s what I’m thinking too…

Is the inside smooth and glazed? Are the insides round or shaped like the outside?

Could be novelty ice cream serving dishes.

The inside is round and glazed. I don’t think they are big enough to hold a standard cone though. Insde at the bottom is less than an inch wide. About the size of a tapered candle.

Thank you all for the responses.
