Sneeuwballen

(Boules de Neige, Snowballs)

Available only from September to March, sneeuwballen (lit. snowballs) are traditional Belgian sweet treats consisting of a vanilla cloud that is coated with dark Belgian chocolate and sprinkled with icing sugar. Although the recipe is still a closely guarded secret of the Larmuseau brand, it is known that a perfect sneeuwbal will crack when you bite into it, and it should melt on your tongue.


These delicious treats were invented in the early 20th century by August Larmuseau from Ghent.
