    July 2nd holiday weekend line.

    Baltimore is the home of the snowball and B&B Snowballs is the best in town. They have the best marshmallow to top it all off. For a special treat try the chocolate snowball with marshmallow.

    G'kids found it funny that there's a flavor "named after Nana"!

    Totally worth the drive from Ft. Meade! DGS has been loving shave ice since we lived in Honolulu. It's tough to find here, sadly - and most of the places spell it WRONG. There is no 'd' on the end of it! Anyway, we are always in search of snowballs that are close, and we just found our place. Not super close in distance, but definitely close to shave ice! Not a terrible drive for a once-a-week treat. Prices are very good and even a small sized snowball has plenty in it. DGD didn't want a snowball, but the helpful server said she could get the ice cream separate. So for $5.20 (because I dropped a $1 in the tip jar), I have 2 very happy g'kids! Also, they now take plastic Google directions were great, although it seemed to suddenly be there (I almost missed the driveway). Thank goodness for the sandwich boards out at the curb. But just for info, there's a Royal Farms just before you get to it, at least from my direction.

    Medium Pumpkin Pie with Marshmallow

    Let me start by saying this: I've never had a snowball before. I didn't even know what a snowball WAS before I moved to Maryland. (I'm from Pennsylvania) When I found out snowballs were just glorified snow cones, I was turned off, especially when I learned that Egg Custard is a real flavor that's a "MUST HAVE". And topped with marshmallow fluff?! It sounds SO gross. However, after so many people told me that I HAVE to try one, I finally caved one night. B & B Snowballs is very close to my apartment, I figured I'd give it a shot. We went on a Friday night in August, after 7pm after dinner, I thought it would be very crowded and pleased to see we didn't have to wait in line long. The girl behind the counter was friendly and took our orders with no problems. My boyfriend got a large egg custard with marshmallow (the size large, is LARGE, be aware the cup is huge) and I got a medium pumpkin pie with marshmallow(since it was closer to September, I get in the fall spirit early). DELICIOUS. SO freaking good, now I'm pissed with myself for waiting so long. The egg custard as nothing like I thought it would taste like and my pumpkin pie was "autumn ice" in a cup. Who knew marshmallow fluff on ice would be so delicious and FILLING?! We can't wait to go back and try more flavors. Fun addition: When I got out of the car, I saw a stray cat on the side of the building and he was so friendly and walked right up to me for pets. I told the man in the crab shack window on the side of the stand to just be careful, there are stray cats outside under someone's car. Turns out, they were well aware of that, the cats were waiting to be fed, they've lived there for years! So if you plan to visit, there are friendly kitties nearby who love rubs!

    a cup of ice cream

    Friends who moved away to Boston were in town with their babes and they wanted to treat their toddler to his first snowball. With a quick search we were on our way to B&B! Nothing too fancy happening here, but they do not disappoint! Our orders were Pink Lemonade, Skyline, Strawberry, and Red Velvet with Marshmallow. The toddler enjoyed his, as well as his mother's and I was very happy with my levels of flavoring, I've, and marshmallow! Note: They are cash only!

    Snowballs with marshmallow!

    I absolutely love B&Bs. I pass 3 snowball stands on the way, but it's worth the drive. My favorite part is the marshmallow on top Their flavors are homemade and delish! They also sell crabs that they will steam and they are cooked perfectly!

    Black cherry snowball
    Nisa M.

    Best snowball stand! I've been going here for about 25 years and always love the snowballs. I always get a fruity flavor with ice cream. Last night we got black cherry with vanilla ice cream. Perfect on a hot summer day.

    If you blink, you might miss it. Decent parking available & some outdoor picnic tables if you want to eat in the lot.

    Snowballs rarely disappoint, & this was no exception. The difference is that these are pretty big for the price, & the syrups aren't bland. I prefer to cut some of the sugar, so I mix regular flavor with sugar-free. In this case it was $2 medium raspberry/strawberry combo, respectively, & I think next time I'll get small. My friend had large (very large) spearmint with a scoop of ice cream, but it was even more than a scoop. More like half the cup according to him. The ice cream bumped up the price a little, so his was around $4.50-ish (?). Note: CASH ONLY, so be prepared.

    My Bean enjoying the kids size!

    Little trick I learned from my brother is to request marshmallow in the middle and again on top.

    Fun place for dessert. They open at 3:00 pm during the week, so we were the first people there at…read more3:05 pm. Since we had just finished lunch, we didn't want one of the huge expensive milkshakes they are known for, although they did look delicious. Instead, my friend and went for one of our favorite treats: pineapple dole whip, swirled with non-dairy vanilla ice cream (for me) and of course, topped with rainbow sprinkles. The serving was large, and our order was ready quickly. Can't go wrong with dole whip, although the non-dairy ice cream was kind of flavorless. Still delicious though. The place is huge (it used to be an old theater) with plenty of tables. There is also a small game room up front with arcade games. Lots of cute murals on the wall to help capture the moment. There were also annoying gnats flying around, so I think next time I'll eat outside, but I will definitely be back.

    The entrance is a bit misleading. It's much larger than what you see from the street entrance…read more Plenty of seating available for groups and families on the inside. Definitely overwhelmed us when we ordered. For the amount you get, these desserts are best shared. I came here after an outting during the day for a sweet treat and found the crazy turtle waffle delicious but very rich. My husband enjoyed his top of the morning crazy mason but only was able to finish half. I'd recommend this for a stop if you're out and enjoying dinner in the old elicott city area and want to share something. May be too much for other people if you don't have a huge sweet tooth.
