I feel like here in DFW it is a market waiting for good snoballs and not all these shaved ice bs. The one we went to is an established small building, but they didn't even have a dome cap, just level with the top of the cup.
I'm researching now what I need to get to be able to start next spring. We'll see if it pans out.

Cut it short and say being open for 6 months, so for 180 days you would need 16.6 transactions a day to break even. So you would need at least two seasons before seeing a profit.
You could get 17 transactions a day selling those kool-aid ice cups

Deep freeze and filtered / distilled water.
Start cheap, if it goes well buy the block maker.

I think I've been to two in DFW that were solid but they used the sno wizard machine which is the key. I would really do your research on competitors.
I actually remember a poster asking about doing this very same thing in DFW.
Here is the link to that thread. Posted in 2017.

Thanks for the link to the thread. I wish we had some sort of messaging on TD to get a follow up on it.

Seems like a good way to pick up 18 year olds
