Snow Block

Snow blocks are blocks made from snow. They are crafted from 4 snowballs, which allows you to create them in your inventory. You cannot reverse the crating process, but the block may be placed and destroyed with a shovel, yielding 4 snowballs.

Snow blocks cannot be destroyed by forces that would destroy snow, such as Water, Lava, Torches, and Fire.

Snow blocks have many uses, such as building, decoration, and storing snowballs. They blend in well with snow themed maps, and can be used to build snow-themed buildings, such as igloos or snow castles. Snow may still fall on them, making them look bigger than they really are.

Trivia

 * Snow used to yield 4-6 snowballs when broken, allowing an infinite amount of snowballs to be made underground.
