A machine for manufacturing ice cream cones having a coating material, such as chocolate and a particulate confectionary material such as crushed nuts, comprises a conveyor for linearly conveying the ice cream cones in upside down position. A tank for holding a coating material such as melted chocolate, is mounted below the conveyor for oscillation vertically relative to the path of travel of ice cream cones. The coating material in the tank contacts the exposed surfaces of the ice cream on each cycle of oscillation. A chamber is mounted for cooscillation with the tank for cyclically enclosing the coated ice cream balls of the ice cream cones. Means are provided for aspirating within the chamber particulate confectionary material, such as crushed nuts, against the coated surfaces of the ice cream cones.
