To make lots of snow cone profits you must start with the right snow cone maker and the best raw product, which is the ice itself. All snow cone makers need good quality clear cube or chunk ice. The snow cone maker usually consists of the hopper, which houses the cutter head, the pusher handle, the motor, and the display case.
A snow cone is produced by a machine that grinds the ice to create a chunky coarse snow product. Topped with an ounce of snow cone syrup that goes to the bottom creating the world's coldest most refreshing concession item.
Snow cones - in one form or another - have been around for centuries. But it wasn't until the late 1800's that vendors in New Orleans popularized "sno cones", cool treats shaved from blocks of ice. A motorized ice shaver was patented in the 1930's. Today, customers can choose from shaved or crushed ice, as well as dozens of flavors and toppings.

Fun Snow Cone Facts:
During the Roman Empire (27 B.C. to A.D. 395), people brought snow down from the mountains and mixed it with syrup to create the world's first frozen dessert. People used handheld wood planes to make the first sno balls.
How to make snow cones
- Fill the hopper to within an inch of the top with ice cubes or block ice (no larger than 3" to 4"). The larger the pieces are, the better the snow.
- Switch the motor on. Wait for the motor to come to full speed (a minute or so).
- Push the pusher handle down against the ice in the hopper. Apply firm and even pressure to make the best snow. Practice will allow you to gauge when to stop pressing. This allows the ice to resettle against the shaver head. You may find that you need to relieve the pressure two or three times in a cycle. Too much pressure will result in snow that is coarse; too little pressure will make the snow mushy.
