Snow Cones Available? On Ship or Castaway Cay?

[leannak]

I have seen pictures of snow cones both on the ships and at Castaway Cay, but can't find any more information. Are they only available occasionally on board? (Special events?) Where can you buy them at Castaway Cay? How much are they and anyone know flavors, sizes, etc.? One looked like Mickey Mouse with two snow cone scoops for ears...

Are you sure it wasn't pictures of Aulani? Shave ice is very popular in Hawaii and I just saw a picture of one that looked exactly like that at Aulani. I didn't see snow cones on our cruise on the Wonder in January and I haven't been to Castaway Cay so I can't answer for that!

They are available both onboard, near the pool, and at a stand near the second tram stop at CC. I don’t remember the price (maybe 4.99$?) but they are always available during the day onboard. There is only one size (that does not feature Mickey ears) and the flavors are the fruity Monin syrups. The ice machine they use produces ice nuggets instead of flakes. Once and done for us.

I'm thinking about $4 on CC. My daughter loves snow cones and doesn't care what kind of ice it is. I never noticed them on board but she was obsessed with the soft serve machines.

I didn't notice them on board either, but my kiddo got one (I'd have called it shave ice, but I think the texture was more like a snow cone) in a straw cup shaped like a coconut at a drink stand near one of the Cookies locations on Castaway.

We got shaved ice at the drink stand by Cookies One on Castaway Cay. It was okay. We've never gotten another one.
