Cotton and Snow is the leading retailer of high-quality shaved ice, organic cotton candy, and local ice cream in Nashville, TN and Plano, TX.
Our journey began at our original location in 2017 at Nashville’s largest mini-golf attraction, where we’ve kept guests cool during the hot summer months for over seven years.
Our finely shaved ice is crafted with love and made with 100% pure cane sugar, no corn syrup. Our signature creation - the cotton candy shaved ice, topped with freshly spun cotton candy - is a true crowd-pleaser! We’re so passionate about our products that we named our company after it
What makes Cotton and Snow the smoothest shaved ice around? We start with 16-inchlong blocks of ice made with the purest water around, filtered through our “in house” osmosis system. Our original house-made flavors are crafted with real fruits and fresh ingredients. We’re also proud to be known for our over-the-top hospitality and relaxed atmosphere.
Having earned our reputation as the most popular shaved ice in the markets we serve, we’re ready to bring our brand to new neighborhoods through franchise offerings.
