If you're thinking about making snow cones with a gallon of Hawaiian Shaved Ice syrup, here's what we found: you can typically whip up between 64 and 100 snow cones, depending on how much syrup you use in each. Most folks use about 1 to 2 ounces of syrup per cone, so your preferences will affect the total number.
The syrup has a decent shelf life, lasting around 2 to 3 years, which is great if you don't plan on using it all at once. Plus, since it's made with high fructose corn syrup, you don't need to refrigerate it, which is super handy.
For those with dietary needs or allergies, the syrup is free from nuts, soy, wheat, dairy, starches, flour, and egg products, according to the manufacturer. This can be reassuring if you're serving a diverse group.
While the taste might not fully match what you'd find at a professional snow cone stand, people generally enjoy the flavor and convenience.
However, it's a good idea to shake the bottle before using it to get the best flavor in every cone.
Enjoy making your snow cones!
