Apologies for wrong info. They do post light items free of charge if they cost more than £4, but just checked and these appear to be £3.95! Could be worth asking them. I've never seen GF cones in any shop in the UK, we have stocked up on Schar cones and wafers in Spain, but I suspect the return trip may be a bit more than £6.50.

Why do you need cones? Try something like magnum lollies for an easy dessert instead.

the goodness direct site says light items under £4 cost £1 to deliver...

and I think here have more reasonable rates too.

Tatt its for Ds who is gluten and dairy free. We have just found a dairy free ice cream but he wont eat it from a bowl but looks longingly at other peoples ice cream cones. He is having a celebration this weekend and we thought it would be a nice treat for him.

Thanks Silverfrog will look again.

I'd try contacting them. i can't remmeber where I saw it exactly, but I clicked on something like "delivery terms" or "delivery rates", and it stated that if light and over £4 then they would post it for free, and if light and under £4 then it would cost £1 - maybe try ringing your order through tomorrow?

Otherwise, I just googled Barkat ice cream cones, and it came up with a list of places, which is where i got my link form (haven't ordered from them before)

have you tried Swedish Glace im sure they sell magnun style ones and poss cones in sainsbury's. (They do in bristol)If not try they're website. I think SG is the best non dairy ice cream in fact even better than dairy!.
