So basicsly the bomb will look like a inverted icecream cone with a nub on the end, or even an icecreamcone with a cherry on top, the cherry is the detonator, the scoop of icecream the explosive and the cone the body.

You could potentialy have a dual charge weapon with these too.
Excellent ideas. And that cone shape is also what you need if you arre making shaped charges. Simple anti-armor weapon anyone? Love it.
