Template:Distinguish

Template:Infobox block A snow block is a full-sized Minecraft:block of Minecraft:snow.

Obtaining

Breaking

To obtain a snow block or Minecraft:snowballs, the block must be broken with a Minecraft:shovel; otherwise, the breaking time is greater, and the block drops nothing. Template:Breaking row A snow block drops four Minecraft:snowballs when broken by a tool without Minecraft:Silk Touch.
A snow block drops itself when broken by a tool with Silk Touch.

Natural generation

Snow blocks generate on the ground in the Minecraft:ice spikes, Minecraft:grove, Minecraft:snowy slopes, Minecraft:frozen peaks and Minecraft:jagged peaks biomes, they form the walls of Minecraft:igloos and some Minecraft:snowy plains Minecraft:village houses and can also generate on top of some Minecraft:icebergs.

Crafting

Usage

Melting

Unlike Minecraft:snow, snow blocks do not melt when a Minecraft:heat blockTemplate:Only or a light-emitting block is nearby, nor will they melt in dry biomes.

Snow golems

Template:FakeImage

Snow blocks can be used to make Minecraft:snow golems by putting 2 snow blocks on top of another and a Minecraft:carved pumpkin or Minecraft:jack o'lantern on the top as the head. Note that the carved pumpkin has to be placed last for this to work. This can be done sideways and upside-down, as well.

Trivia

  • Snow may still fall on top of snow blocks, making them look taller than they actually are.
  • When a snow block is on grass, the grass block changes to a different "snowy" texture as if a snow layer is on it. However, because snow blocks are not transparent to light, the grass changes to dirt shortly after.
