The BUNC Story: A Fresh Start for Cones
Share
Have you ever looked at something ordinary and thought, "This could be so much better"? That's exactly how BUNC came to be. We saw an industry where "good enough" was the norm, and we knew we had to raise the bar.
We took a close look at how paper cones were being made. What we found was a world of shortcuts, questionable methods, and a real lack of care. Honestly, it just didn't feel right to us.
What started as a bit of frustration soon became a mission. We wanted to bring a new level of cleanliness, reliability, and trust to a product that, frankly, deserved a complete makeover.
The Problems We Just Couldn't Shake Off
Before BUNC, it seemed like cones were often an afterthought. They were made without much thought for how clean they were, how well they worked, or even how they looked. We saw some things that weren't just old-fashioned – they were simply not okay.
Spit instead of glue?
Yes, you read that right. It's a practice still out there. Some smaller makers use saliva to start rolling the cone. It’s not clean, not safe, and definitely not something you want near your mouth.
Mystery materials
Many cones on the market use industrial-grade inks and glues. These are materials never designed to be near anything you'd consume. They aren't tested for safety in this way, and you just can't trust them.
Lumpy seams
Cones with edges that overlap create bumps and unevenness. They don't roll smoothly, don't look neat, and don't offer a great experience.
Hit-or-miss shapes
Crooked cuts, bent tips, and loosely wrapped cones were all too common. This leads to annoyance, wasted product, and just a generally poor experience.
No one watching the shop
In many cases, there was no system for checking quality or keeping track of batches. If something went wrong, there was no one to turn to and no way to make it right.
What Makes BUNC Different?
We knew that just making a "better cone" wasn't enough. We needed to completely rethink what a cone should be: clean, precisely made, elegant, and something you could feel good about using.
Clean and Natural Adhesive
We decided to use only Arabic gum. This means no chemical aftertaste, no weird smells – just pure, reliable sticking power from beginning to end.
Smooth, Straight Edges
Our cones are designed with a single, clean seam. No overlaps, no bulk. What does this mean for you? A smoother roll, a neater appearance, and a better, more even burn.
Perfectly Cut, Every Time
Each BUNC cone is cut with incredible precision. This means they are all perfectly symmetrical and perform consistently, cone after cone.
Tracking and Quality Checks
From the raw paper to the finished cone, every step is recorded and tested. We know the story of every single cone – and we believe you should too.
So, Why Choose BUNC?
It's simple, really.
We believe that the little details make a big difference. We believe that hygiene isn't a bonus – it's a fundamental right. We believe that in a world that’s always rushing and cutting corners, it’s important to slow down and do things the right way.
And because when you choose a BUNC cone, you should know exactly what you're holding: clean materials, thoughtful design, and absolutely no shortcuts.
The next time you pick up a BUNC cone, remember this: it's more than just paper. It’s a symbol of trust. It’s a promise we’ve kept. It’s a new standard for people who expect, and deserve, better.
