The pack of 5 cones also allows for more flexibility as the consumer can indulge in a cone with the whole family or save some for later. It will be available initially in major cities of Mumbai and Bengaluru through food delivery platforms like Swiggy and Zomato and later will be available on all platforms. The availability of the cones on these platforms also allows for a wider reach, making it easy for customers to order them online and have them delivered to their doorstep.
