Pineapple snowball with mint and marshmallow
Kelly L.

It's not summer until you stop in and have a snowball at crushed velvet! The ice is the best consistency and the flavors pop! They have some really weird flavor pairing but crazy enough they work (like their Arnold Palmer snowball). I love their mint flavor as it is natural and so delicious! Stop by, grab a snowball, and hang out for a bit!

It's the closest place in MD to true Hawaiian shave ice. It's my favorite sweet treat and takes me back to the islands with every bite.

Best shaved ice in Baltimore. We got the passion fruit guava and jalapeño pineapple. Both were phenomenal. We will certainly be back.

Cute little storefront in the heart of Fells, offering a variety of Korean foods, drinks, and…read moredesserts. My husband and I split the Raven bingsoo. It was delicious, and absolutely large enough for two. It was loaded up with toppings and even had another layer of the toppings at the bottom. The workers ask if you want condensed milk added to it, allowing for sweetness modification as desired. Amazing dessert, would definitely return for another bingsoo and to give their lunch menu a try!

Came to get dessert and tried the mango bingsoo. While the menu says it is mango snow, it was…read moreactually just regular milk snow. Toppings in the bowl include mochi, mango jelly, and mango cubes. On top is some mochi, mango slices, and a scoop of passion fruit sorbet. There is mango sauce and condensed milk throughout the bowl. The staff spent a lot of effort to make the bowl pretty and did a nice job of mixing the ingredients so that you don't have toppings on top only. The shop seems cute and there seems like there would be more things available when the owner is in. They have lunch boxes that look good. They also have takoyaki on the menu but the machine is currently down. One thing that I didn't like is that the item was different from the menu description. I was expecting mango snow and mango ice cream or sorbet. It's not the end of the world but I picked this one in particular because it was supposed to be mango snow. While the bingsoo is large enough to share, I also feel it is priced a bit high for what it is. Might be because there aren't many other laces like this in the area but bingsoo is usually bigger or less pricey. Overall, a decent stop for dessert if you want something a little different. Street parking was not that hard to find when we went.

Loved Blue Berry, so nomnom. Coconut was very strong so I wouldn't order it. Some of the nice people work at this food truck. Stop by and say hello to them! I will post more pics of them later.

Their shaved ice is like a fine snow that almost evaporates on the tongue, leaving a huge burst of tasty tasty flavor. And speaking of flavors, you won't find the rainbow assortment here. Honey's has less than a dozen, I'd wager. But in addition to the usual standbys, they have several "organic" flavors, made with cane sugar and natural flavors. I actually broke with personal long-standing tradition and passed up blue raspberry for the organic peach flavor, and boy howdy was I rewarded. Major peach punch-the-face with evaporating snow iciness. Delicious. Add to that, the cutest food truck ever, although you probably shouldn't call it a truck. Honey's is a bright yellow converted Bajaj auto-rickshaw. Easy to spot, but if you're not sure, look for the fat man running after it like a kid to the ice cream truck. That would be me. Oh, and they don't have marshmallow fluff, so don't even ask. But if you're partial to that, you're hating on me by now anyway.

All i'm going to say is I had the opportunity to try Ono Wai Shave Ice while I visited Leesburg, VA…read morea couple of weeks ago and I'm ready to go back just for this sweet treat. We have so-called shave ice here in Boston but it's not like Ono Wai's. These are served with ice cream at the bottom - YUM- and a drizzle of sweet cream on top! It's like 2 desserts in one because by the time you get to the bottom, the flavored ice made the ice cream frosty and sweet - like a creamsicle- but better! The hardest part of ordering this little cup of heaven is choosing the flavors - they have 25 - and apparently they are imported from Hawaii. Thankfully, my family ordered different flavors so I was able to try a variety. They were all rich and flavorful. I'll be back Ono Wai - I'll be back!

Unlike a snow cone, the fluffy ice absorbs the shavings versus surrounding it at the bottom of the cup. This makes for a much more flavorful experience. The ice is then flavored with one of 25 syrups we offer. Some patrons opt to have ice cream placed in the bottom of their shave ice flower cup and top the flavored shavings with a sweet cream. Shave ice is a delicious, affordable treat! FYI....we operate a mobile unit. Follow us on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram to stay up-to-date on our vending location.

There's not a bad thing on this menu! I usually get a blue raspberry snoball with marshmallow topping and it hits the spot! The sno swirl (snoball with soft serve ice cream) also hits the spot on a hot summers day. But if that isn't your speed this is one of the few snoball stands that also sells ice cream and Italian ice, too! I really enjoyed the Biscoff Cookie Butter sundae that was introduced last year and I'm glad it's a permanent fixture to the menu! The service is quick and kind and if the lines look long don't be intimidated -- they move very fast! As with traditional snoball stands there's no indoor seating but the business offers a few picnic tables you can go and sit at or you can sit in your car and enjoy your sweet treat. Parking has never been an issue even when the lines are long. Fair warning: if you go make sure you bring CASH! This business only takes cash. So don't expect any support for Apple/Google Pay, Cash App, Venmo, or any credit/debit cards.

A few benches and tables around the back but not much for seating. It is cash only! Staff is super friendly, and they take your order and make it before you leave the window so there's no confusion. It's the best spot for a snowball!
