Sweet cream drizzled over fluffy shaved ice creates the most refreshing treat I could’ve imagined.
I haven’t had a snow cone in years and this is certain to be the very best snow cone you’ve ever tasted. My kids went nuts over it and I grinned imagining all the possibilities.
The very same day that my friend Meseidy shared her recipe for Puerto Rican shaved ice, I ordered this Shaved Ice Machine. She made a simple snow cone sound so refreshing, I had to try it for myself. (I still can’t believe how excited I am over this simple gadget!)
This handy little machine has already provided a heck of a lot of fun for my kids and I both. On a day when the temp is well past 100 degrees, it’s pure heaven to sit and sip on spoonfuls of sweet shaved ice.
I’m giddy over the possibilities for this machine all summer long!

Is it weird that I kinda want to just eat the shaved ice plain? I've asked for snow cones that way! A coconut La Croix would also be delicious poured over it!
Lately I just use Natural Bliss Sweet Cream by coffeeMate made into ice cubes that I put into a zippy and crush with a hsmmer! Then z wee bit of a drizzle of blueberry puree from fresh blueberries of the garden , may put a dollop of creme fraiche on top eh! Thank you for this opportunity to put the hammer down as it were for Shaved Ice☆
I would make a strawberry colada snowcone. In my hometown they put coffee creamer on the flavored snowcones, delish!
I would make coconut and pineapple first. Thanks for the chance 🙂
I would use some coconut milk with sprinkling of toasted coconut on top.
I would make cherry.
Coconut!
Coconut or maybe a coconut strawberry. Thanks!
I would like to say lemonade flavored – shaunie
The first flavor I'd make is ice cream flavor and I'd top it with sweetened condensed milk. This has been my favorite flavor combination since I was a child.
I've never had a cream shaved ice so I would try the recipe you posted first
cherry flavor
Pina colado flavor for me!
I would make Lemon shaved ice. So refreshing.
My first shaved ice would be lemon lavender cream
We'd probably do a pina colada or a watermelon lemonaide shaved ice. 🙂
The sweet cream did get my attention.Also love lemon.
Strawberry!
Strawberry!
will this make enough to soak my head in??? 🙂
