Starting at the pointed end of the cone, wind the pastry strip around 1 cone, slightly overlapping edges of pastry(strip will not reach the bottom of the cone) Spray the pastry cone with cooking spray and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon sugar. Place the cone on it's side, with the end of the strip facing down, onto a baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining pastry strips and cones.
