Snow blocks can be used to make snow golems by putting 2 snow blocks on top of another and a carved pumpkin or jack o'lantern on the top as the head. Note that the carved pumpkin has to be placed last for this to work.

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.
Script error: No such module "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 ice spikes, grove, snowy slopes, frozen peaks and jagged peaks biomes, they form the walls of igloos and some snowy plains village houses and can also generate on top of some icebergs.

Generated loot
Script error: No such module "lootChest".
Snow
A snow block can also be obtained by breaking 8 snow layers with a Silk Touch shovel.<ref name="MC-134408">Template:Bug</ref>
Crafting
Usage
Melting
Unlike Minecraft:snow, snow blocks do not melt when a heat blockTemplate:Only or a light-emitting block is nearby, nor will they melt in dry biomes.
Snow golems
Snow blocks can be used to make snow golems by putting 2 snow blocks on top of another and a carved pumpkin or 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.
Crafting ingredient
Sulfur cube
Template:Message box Template:Article otherSulfur cubes have the ability to absorb snow, either through picking it up or being interacted with it. This provides the hockey puck/fast sliding effect to the mob when hitting it.

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.
