apparently making snow is a complicated and expensive business and usually involves large amounts of snow; for ski slopes or film production whatever.
the ice-cream snow machine would be much cheaper, simpler and less technical but a lot more fun.
take a whole heap of ice-cream and link it
up to some kind of blowing machine; perhaps an airless snow gun. these use simple nozzles like household spray bottles that turn the ice-cream mixture into a fine mist. obviously the party venue will have to be pretty cold but with a few gin & tonics…

And where do we add the hot fudge sprinklers, not to mention the cherry cannons and peanut pumps. All required to create the ultimate sundae. Have a bun. |

If only I could give you 20 croissants instead of one...[po], you have successfully integrated two of the best stuff on earth (ice cream and gin) into one fun, kick-ass party. Anything that involves those two things and snow machines gets my vote. |

\\complicated and expesive\\ actually, not really. My
brother used to work at a ski hill making snow, all it takes
is a water hose, and a powerful air compressor to blast
the crap out of the water, making snow. |

However I like to eat ice cream more then snow, so bun+ |

hey swimr, you need to freeze all that water - that takes energy. even I know that! oh perhaps you live in the antarctic... |
|
| |
or Canada, meh close enough |
|

you are holding your globe upside down. how many girls have said *that* to you? |
|
| |
ummmm, sticky....[po] I guess I am just OCD enough that the first thing I think of with blown ice cream is what a mess to clean up. I need a vacation. |
|
| |
blimey, whatever that is - its not worth the cool sensual slimey feel of people partying...hey who ate my cone? |
|
| |
dent, darling - its my 6th... don't think much of yours btw... |
|
| |
Obsessive compulsive disorder, I think *clean up* before I can have fun... |
|
| |
what of mine don't you think much of? |
|
| |
*update*.. Po says its my fella, she doesn't want to share. then I accuse her of being drunk then she deletes my accusation. then she passes out..*update* |

I've been looking into making really soft snow, the kind made with real snow flakes, not chips of ice. It's tricky -- you'd be trying to condense liquid vapor, not freeze pieces of ice. (See link for the best explanation I found.) The outcome wouldn't be party / alcohol fodder but ridiculously refined restaurant specialty. There's room for investigating combinations with flavorful crystallization seeds, like vanilla on small specks of cinnamon dust. |

Leave it to [po] to figure out how to get
a whole mountain sticky and sweet. + |
