My baby got the nachos and rainbow snow ball she said it was bussin bussin ... the music was an added bonus because we danced until our order was ready. The staff, very nice and polite! Will try the other location that's closer!

The flavors list is endless and overwhelming almost and the service is always great. To top it off, they have a drive through which is super convenient, especially when it's crazy hot out and you'd rather do anything but stand in a line outside. They also take credit cards so you won't have to worry about having cash with you. Others items available such as different soft serve ice creams too. As another huge plus, absolutely ANY flavor on their menu can be made sugar free and tastes just as delicious! Cruise on over to the Sugar Shack and get you summadat!

These are the BEST snoballs available in Ascension! They don't rely on fancy toppings or…read moreextravagant arrangements because they don't have to. Their ice is perfect: fluffy, fresh, and not too big! Since it was summer in Louisiana, and we didn't have a big wedding, we even chose THIS for our "wedding cake!" My favorite is the raspberry (not blue, regular) with condensed milk. I think they even do pickle snoballs. Gross to me, but glorious to others!

Snow cones!!! What is not to like!!! Usually I wouldn't make a review for a snow cone joint but…read morethis one deserves the notice! We are on a road trip and decided we needed something cold and delightful. Hubs and I got our usual Tigers Blood while the kids got Strawberry and the other kid got Mango. The owner was working today and she made the best snow cones. The ice was perfectly packed and the syrupy goodness was applied in perfect proportion. She was friendly and talkative as she prepared our snow cones. We would definitely go back. Now, as you are pulling in it looks as though the shop is inside the mall - nope! It is outside, across from Main Event with a convenient extra wide driveway. The shops were not busy, so hubs stayed parked there with the doggo while kids and I ran in. What a perfect location and a perfect experience!

The strawberry shortcake is good but super creamy and heavy. The crushed strawberry topping (extra) helps lighten it up. The sizes are massive and very reasonably priced. Benches to the side of the building.

Hansen's is a good, solid choice if you are looking for a sno-ball. They have been around for 86…read moreyears!! I like how they employ "the kids". Nostalgic to see, hard working summer jobs. You can not go to New Orleans without trying Hansens at least once. If you are local, its a really nice place to visit the evening of a hot day. I have tried the root beer, chocolate, cream of coconut, strawberry and spearmint. All have been tasty. For about $8-10 you can get a snow ball with a pineapple and cherry. For about $12-13 you can get marshmallow on top and I highly recommend this for the experience. Its typically a longer line but its part of the experience. When you go inside, its like a blast from the past. You are gonna have syrup all over the souvenir cup and all. They have many choices to choose from.
