Shaved snow served by Wooly's.
"Shaved snow is a hybrid between shaved ice and ice cream. By taking a block of ice made with low-fat milk, flavors are infused into the blocks before it is frozen, and then shave it very fine to create a texture similar to fresh fallen snow."
Flavors available are Original Leche, Coffee, and Melon. Optional toppings include Strawberry, Blueberry, Coconut Flakes, Mochi, Pocky Sticks, Cookies 'n Cream, Graham Cracker Crumble, Captain Crunch, Fruity Pebbles, Corn Flakes, Sea Salt Leche, Chocolate Drizzle, Whipped Cream, and Strawberry Cream.
"Snow ice"—cream, milk, water, sugar and fruit, frozen and then shaved and served in cones—is popular in Korea, Taiwan and Indonesia and making inroads into the United States.

In Hawaii, "shave ice" is similar to snowballs, and is sold in cone-shaped paper cups. "Rainbow," a popular flavor, consists of three colors of syrup chosen usually for their color rather than their taste compatibility. Commonly, a scoop of vanilla ice cream or sweetened azuki beans is first added to the bottom of the cup and is capped with condensed milk
Vendors in Texas and northern Mexico serve finely shaved ice desserts. Called a raspa, they are usually sold from a roadside stand or trailer. They come in many flavors, including leche (milk and cinnamon) and picosito (the Spanish word for 'spicy' made with lemon and chili powder.)

In Japan they are known as kakigori, and in India it is called a "gola" and usually served on popsicle sticks.
