In years past, this place has been the go-to for tasty snowballs on a hot summer day. I can't quite…read moreput my finger on it ,but something has changed . The syrup was thicker and sweeter than it is now . I try to be consistent when ordering and of course everyone has their favorites but I generally get a tiger's blood or spearmint flavored snowball. This time around, I did the spearmint. The color was right but the flavor could have been more concentrated in my opinion. Also the nachos were overrun with cheese and chili. This would typically be a good thing! But I didn't have enough chips to soak it all up so it ended up being a soggy mess after a few mins . I was disappointed with my items this visit. I may have to find a new go-to for my summer snowball fix. Bummer

The flavors list is endless and overwhelming almost and the service is always great. To top it off, they have a drive through which is super convenient, especially when it's crazy hot out and you'd rather do anything but stand in a line outside. They also take credit cards so you won't have to worry about having cash with you. Others items available such as different soft serve ice creams too. As another huge plus, absolutely ANY flavor on their menu can be made sugar free and tastes just as delicious! Cruise on over to the Sugar Shack and get you summadat!

The owner told us these are a Southern delicacy, and I can see why! So so good! I think these must be a seasonal treat, but I'll definitely be on the lookout for them again. As for the snowballs, they were perfectly flavored and the ice was soft and flakey like snow. I dare say the best I've ever had! We will definitely be back!

I never stray from my favorite wedding cake flavor stuffed snoball topped with condensed milk. I love their creamy wedding cake flavor and the regular. My husband always switches up and has never had a one that he didn't like. They are steeped in tradition and it's a local favorite. They're always super friendly and you have a choice or the walk up window or drive thru. Stop in and enjoy!

Their ice is perfect: fluffy, fresh, and not too big! Since it was summer in Louisiana, and we didn't have a big wedding, we even chose THIS for our "wedding cake!" My favorite is the raspberry (not blue, regular) with condensed milk. I think they even do pickle snoballs. Gross to me, but glorious to others!

Add this to your itinerary. Absolutely worth the stop…read more Shaved Ice doesn't describe it properly. It's like a fluffy snow cloud. Get the satsuma or any citrus flavor. So refreshing. The strawberry shortcake is good but super creamy and heavy. The crushed strawberry topping (extra) helps lighten it up. The sizes are massive and very reasonably priced. Benches to the side of the building.

Hansen's is a good, solid choice if you are looking for a sno-ball. They have been around for 86…read moreyears!! I like how they employ "the kids". Nostalgic to see, hard working summer jobs. You can not go to New Orleans without trying Hansens at least once. If you are local, its a really nice place to visit the evening of a hot day. I have tried the root beer, chocolate, cream of coconut, strawberry and spearmint. All have been tasty. For about $8-10 you can get a snow ball with a pineapple and cherry. For about $12-13 you can get marshmallow on top and I highly recommend this for the experience. Its typically a longer line but its part of the experience. When you go inside, its like a blast from the past. You are gonna have syrup all over the souvenir cup and all. They have many choices to choose from.

Can't complain because what is there to expect with no sugar in it, but my daughter got the unicorn snowball and she said it was the best snowball she's ever had.

My entire family loves these snowballs. The employees are always so nice too!
