Bread & Pastries/Puff Pastry Cones?

Question
Hey Elyse :) My name's Raquel, and I'll be straight up with you right now. My question is not about cooking or baking :P
But I still hope you can try to help. I am looking for a utensile that makes puff pastry cones. I don't know exactly what they're called, but I do know that the dessert is mainly a Portuguese and/or Italian dish. Here is an image of the utensile:

and the dessert:

My question is, do you have any clue where I can buy them?
I've been searching google, and going to different stores, but they don't seem to have them anywhere. I would prefer to buy them directly at the store, rather than using the internet.
So, it would be a great help if you can tell me where I can buy them. Thank You :)

Answer
I'm sorry, I've never seen those, and I can't think of anything that would take it's place. It was hard to tell the size, and I'm not familiar with the use. Can you just use another shape? You could form the pastry over an inverted muffin tin, which would make more of a bowl, but could still be filled.

I can answer any questions about baking. The only thing I'm not too good at is baking pies, nor do I know much about high altitude baking.

Experience

I have been baking for over 30 years. One of my hobbies is creating recipes, most of those for baked goods. I made my own wedding cake. Currently I prefer to bake healthier things. I use a lot of whole wheat and other whole grain flours, and prefer to use less sugar or sugar substitutes in my baking. I do a lot with fruit.
