Revised May 13, 2020
It doesn’t matter how you spell it – Sno-Balls, Snowballs or Snoballs – the icy creation is one of the most beloved culinary traditions in New Orleans, taking its rightful place alongside the beignet, the muffuletta and the po-boy.
And so we present for your reading (and eating) pleasure our lowdown on snoballs stands in and around the Crescent City.
