The Anderson Mill location will be closed until further notice. We had problems with the air conditioner and replaced it with a new one only to discover the new one is faulty. Look out for updates. The Circle C location is open. Sorry for the inconvenience. On a personal note, I'm sick of working on this so if anyone installs RV air conditioners I might have a job for you. 😎

Anderson Mill is closed today for repairs. We will update again for tomorrow. Circle C is open.

What people say

Sweet Caroline's Snow Shack, located on Highway 183 in Austin, is a hidden gem that offers a delightful frozen treat experience. As a locally owned and operated business with multiple locations in Austin, Sweet Caroline's takes pride in providing over 50 flavors of New Orleans-style snowballs to the Austin community.

What sets Sweet Caroline's apart is their commitment to authenticity. They source all their machinery and flavors from local businesses in New Orleans, the birthplace of snowballs. This dedication ensures that customers can enjoy the same high-quality snowballs found in the streets of New Orleans right here in Austin.

But what exactly makes a snowball different from a snow cone? At Sweet Caroline's, their snowballs are light, fine, and fluffy, creating a texture that is far superior to the granular consistency of a typical snow cone. The secret lies in their SnoWizard machine, which produces ice that absorbs the flavored syrup instead of allowing it to settle at the bottom of the cup. This innovative technique ensures that every bite is bursting with flavor.

The flavor selection at Sweet Caroline's is truly impressive. From classic options like bubble gum, cherry, and strawberry to more adventurous choices like dill pickle, red velvet cake, and Pink Lady (a beloved New Orleans favorite made with nectar and cream), there is something for everyone. And if you're feeling particularly daring, don't miss out on their specials such as the "Sweet Caroline" or the "Incredible Hulk."

Beyond their delicious offerings, Sweet Caroline's aims to create a safe and family-friendly environment where Austinites can come together and enjoy these delectable treats. Their exceptional service ensures that each customer receives top-notch treatment while indulging in their favorite flavors.

It comes as no surprise that Sweet Caroline's has been voted Austin's favorite frozen treat. Their dedication to quality and commitment to providing an enjoyable experience have won over the hearts (and taste buds) of the local community.

So, if you find yourself craving a refreshing and flavorful snowball, make sure to visit Sweet Caroline's Snow Shack on Highway 183. Follow them on Twitter to stay updated on their latest offerings and experience the magic of New Orleans-style snowballs right here in Austin.
