Emmorton Snowballs and Ice Cream on Wheel Road! =) Best snowballs around. They've been around and family-owned for 30 years. No other stand around makes their amazing snowball/ice cream combinations. It's like home!

The Snowball Experience. Located in Havre de Grace and Special Events around the County. They offer 137 Flavors Make-Your-Own Snowballs. No limit to how many flavors you can have. It is a bright green truck with big flags.
It's me

Wheel Road Snowballs!!!! Unlike most of these places, it's been around long enough that I grew up on them.

Am surprised that there aren't more votes for "Wheel Road Snoballs" known as Emmorton Snoballs and Ice Cream. Think many of these votes are for businesses located in other areas ~ Those voting have probably not been to Wheel Road. It has been a family owned business for over 30 yrs. with a great owner and employees. MANY flavors ~ Just tell them what you'd like. Please visit here before voting ~ They REALLY are the BEST !

Will try once again. Some of the votes for Wheel Road Snowballs have disappeared. Is this a political thing ? Doesn't seem fair to me !

Moved here from South Carolina. I'm addicted to Sharon's snowballs, I go there almost every day. I take my family there when they come to town. You have to try them if you haven't already! I like Cantaloupe with marshmallow. My kids like cotton candy blue and pink and they like bubble gum.

I grew up in Baltimore where I went to Snoasis and I thought no one could compare. In Harford County you have Sharon's Shaved Ice. They are as good if not better and they are much less expensive!

Some things you may not know about Sharon. All her customers know she's the best in Harford County. She's always giving back to the community, especially schools. Her daughter goes to a Harford County school. Her son plays lacrosse at Johns Hopkins University.

Some things you may not know about Emmorton Snowballs. All their customers know they're the best in Harford County. They are constantly giving back to the community, especially schools. They have been a staple in the county and family owned for over 30 years. When the original owner passed away, her son took over the business and his father, Mr. Bob, is still there every single night to talk to costumers and hand out coupons for free snowballs.
