Cuisinart SCM-10P1 Snow Cone Maker, Plastic, Red

Product Information

While its materials could be a little more durable, its overall performance and ability to serve multiple people make it worthy of its mid-range price tag. Some people love to make rainbow effect cones, or you can combine fruity flavours for the perfect refreshing treat. You can use your blender if you don't have a snow cone maker. It will require a bit more work, but it's also a great way to try out snow cones before buying a machine. Place some ice cubes into the blender and turn it on. Remember, you want to achieve the same consistency as sliced ice, so try not to blitz it into a slushie.

A good snow cone machine will shave the ice into the perfect consistency, making your life a lot easier. The best thing about snow cones is you can get inventive with flavours because you pour the syrup onto the ice instead of blending it with the ice.

Customer reviews

The machine’s compact footprint makes storage easy, and adults can enjoy its treats, too—especially when they transform frozen watermelon rosé mimosa and turn it into a snow cone for grown-ups. Plus, it comes with a one-year warranty. Be aware that the machine is noisy when chopping up the ice and doesn't make as fine and fluffy ice as others. Dimensions (LxWxH): 7.3 x 5.1 x 7.9 inches | Weight: 1.7 pounds | What’s Included: Ice crusher, ice cube mold

Hannah Howard has been writing about food and beverages for over a decade, including the memoirs "Feast" and "Plenty". Hannah is very sensitive to the heat and is always looking to cool down with the quintessential frozen treat; she's obsessed with iced lattes, ice cream, and shaved ice.Easy to use and assemble, the Nostalgia snow cone maker does a top-notch job at shaving ice to fine snow-cone consistency thanks to its precision-cut stainless-steel blades. True to its name, the fun design includes a chamber that's clear from all sides, so you can watch the shaved ice pile up as it’s shaved. (This is weirdly satisfying.) This electric machine makes just as delicious frozen lemonades, slushies, and adult party drinks (spike some frozen limeade for a grownup summer treat) as it does stellar snow cones and shaved ice. It's nearly effortless to operate—just add ice cubes, flip a switch, and it shaves enough ice for four cones in under a minute. In this blog post, we'll teach you everything you need to know about snow cones, including what they are, where they come from, and how to make your own at home.
