Igloos are structures that are naturally generated in snowy biomes. They are round structures constructed primarily of snow blocks.
Generation
Igloos naturally generate in the Ice Plains and Cold Taiga biomes, but not in Ice Mountains, Ice Plains Spikes, Cold Taiga Hills, or other variants.
Structure
Igloos are composed of snow blocks, sheltering a carpeted interior containing a bed, furnace and crafting table.
In half of the igloos, a trapdoor can be found under the carpet, leading down a long ladder shaft to a basement. This passageway and the basement are built from stone brick, some of which are monster eggs. In this basement is a brewing stand, a cauldron, a chest, and beyond the far wall, behind iron bars in two different cages, are a villager priest and a zombie villager priest.
The cauldron is 2⁄3 full, and the brewing stand contains a splash potion of weakness and an empty bottle.
Loot
In Java Edition, each igloo chest contains items drawn from 2 pools, with the following distribution:
| Item | Stack Size [A] | Weight [B] | Chance [C] | Avg. per chest [D] |
Avg. # chests to search [E] |

A '''powder snow bucket''' is a [[bucket]] with [[powder snow]] inside.
== Obtaining ==
A powder snow bucket can be obtained by {{ctrl|using}} an [[empty bucket]] on a [[powder snow block]] or [[powder snow cauldron]].
== Usage ==
Pressing {{control|use}} while holding a powder snow bucket places a [[powder snow]] block. {{IN|Java}}, powder snow may also be placed inside empty [[cauldron]]s, creating powder snow cauldrons.
[[Dispenser]]s can also create and place powder snow buckets. However, they cannot do so with [[cauldron]]s. You can also use it to cushion falls in the [[nether]] by placing it below you when falling.
