Festive Mexican Dip Mix in a Cone

1/2 teaspoon coarse black pepper
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons dried parsley flakes
1 teaspoon dried cilantro leaves

Stand empty cone in tall drinking glass to hold it upright.

Measure ingredients in order listed into cone. When finished, lift cone out of glass. If necessary, squeeze and shape the tip to get the first ingredient in place and cone nicely pointed. Twist cone top tightly and put a twist-tie tightly around it to avoid spilling and to keep ingredients from mixing within the cone and losing the layered appearance. Trim excess from top of cone to make it look more proportionate. Tie a plain bow, fancy bow or ribbon around the neck of the cone. Decorate the cone however you wish.
