Our German readers tell us that the gift cone / Zuckertute tradition contunues in Germany at least in the early 21st century. Its to early to tell what will transpire for the rest of the century. We note images from modern Germany showing that the gift cone custome continues to be a popular tradition. We continue to see charming imges of German children with their cones. We do not know if it is as popular as it once was, or if the trdition has changed in any way. The available images, however, confirm that the tradition continues. Hopefully our German readers can provide us some information here.

A German reader writes, "Traditions are still here with the Zuckertute tradition. The difference of course is that the children now wear clothes like those in America, Canada, and Australia."
The Germans continue the Zucartüten tradition in the 2010s. A German reader writes, "The tradition was and still is. Parents deliver the ‘ Zuckertueten’ a day before to the school. with their child’s name on it. The children receive the cones on their first day at the end of class. The children are called to the front one by one and handed their ‘ Goodie cone'. They then carry them proudly home when their parents collecte them from school." [Marrion]
