Snowballs – an authentic Ghent specialty
Come rain or shine, from September to March, Larmuseau has been treating us to delicious snowballs. This recognised regional product, which dates back over a hundred years, is a fresh, tasty delicacy. The perfect snowball cracks when you bite it, and melts on your tongue like snow in the sun. This vanilla cloud, coated in a paper-thin layer of dark Belgian chocolate and sprinkled with powdered sugar, is still crafted using a traditional recipe by young foodie Tanguy Serraes at his confectionary in Ghent.
The story of over 100 years of snowballs
At his confectionary Supra, Confiserie-Chocolaterie-Biscuiterie in Patijntjestraat, August Larmuseau prepared a wide variety of sweets for the sweet-toothed citizens of Ghent. At the time, chocolate was far too expensive for blue-collar workers, so August came up with something new: edible snowballs, which crack when you bite them, and melt on your tongue like snow in the sun. These vanilla clouds, coated in a paper-thin layer of dark Belgian chocolate, are sprinkled with powdered sugar. Fresh and tasty!
The Ghent World Expo from April to November 1913 attracted countless tourists to the city. Larmuseau’s snowballs, which cost a fraction of the price of expensive chocolate truffles, tantalised their taste buds, earning August Larmuseau the gold medal for food. This was just the beginning of the snowballs’ successful journey.
After WWII the Larmuseau confectionary was forced to close its doors. Cheap sweets from the Netherlands had made their way to Belgium and competition was tough. But Ghent couldn’t live without its snowballs, so August decided to focus entirely on this tasty treat. Over the years, many have tried to imitate the original snowballs, but to this day, no one has succeeded in creating that same creamy texture.
In 1950 Georges, August’s son, took over the business and snowballs could be found on the counter of virtually every village grocer. After all, what better way to round up the bill than with a few tasty snowballs?
Johnny Larmuseau, the son of Georges and grandson of August, became the new owner of the family business. Having worked there for over thirteen years, he knew better than anyone else how to craft the perfect snowball. Despite modern storage methods snowballs remained a seasonal product without preservatives or flavour enhancers. In 2009 snowballs were officially recognised as a regional product.
Tanguy Serraes, a young inhabitant of Ghent (b. 1991), read in a newspaper article that Johnny Larmuseau was looking for someone to take over the business and breathe new life into this Ghent specialty. Tanguy jumped on board. Johnny trained him, sharing not only the 100-year-old secret family recipe with him, but also teaching him the tricks of the trade. Then it was time for Tanguy to take over. Come what may, he has vowed never to change the recipe in any way, because let’s face it, once you’ve tasted a real Ghent snowball, you’re hooked for life.
Where and when to buy snowballs
The snowball season runs from early September to late March.
In this period, snowballs are sold at bakeries, delicatessen shops and market stalls across the country.
Are you keen to sell snowballs yourself, or are you already a reseller yourself and would like your contact details to be included on our website? Then don’t hesitate to contact Tanguy at info@confiserielarmuseau.com or on (+32) (0)9 253 90 67 for more information.

In 2009 VLAM (the Flemish Centre for Agricultural and Fisheries Marketing) recognised snowballs, which have been a popular treat in and around Ghent for over a century, as a Flemish regional product. Needless to say, we are incredibly proud of this label. No snowball is as tasty as the ones rolled in Ghent, but luckily you can enjoy them across the country!
Handmade is back. UNIZO has confirmed it, because our snowballs have been awarded the authenticity hallmark HANDMADE IN BELGIUM, identifying them as a genuine, hand-crafted product of quality.

Frequently asked questions
- Are snowballs available year-round?
- No, snowballs are available from early September to late March only.
- How do you store snowballs?
- Just like real snowballs, the Ghent snowballs like to keep it cool. It is therefore best to store them below 18 °C, preferably in the fridge.
- How long do snowballs keep?
- Our Ghent snowballs do not contain any preservatives, so keep an eye on the expiry date on the package. On average, a snowball can be eaten up to four months after production.
- Where are snowballs made?
- In Ghent of course, and that hasn’t changed in over a hundred years! Keen to pay us a visit? Then have a look at our contacts section.
- Can you have a snowball fight with the Ghent snowballs?
- Of course, but why waste them? Eating these delicious treats is much more fun!
- Where can I find the snowball recipe?
- That’s a secret, but we’ll let you in on a few details. First Tanguy makes a syrup that has to rest for a day. He then whisks it together with all the other ingredients to create a creamy texture. This mix is then passed through a machine that pipes eight snowballs at a time and sends them through the cooling tunnel. They then move on to a chocolate waterfall. Once they have cooled completely, they are coated with powdered sugar on all sides and eventually hand-wrapped.
- Are snowballs suitable for people who suffer from food allergies?
- Are you a vegetarian? No worries, our snowballs are made using vegetable fats. Are you intolerant to lactose? Our snowballs are made using a type of margarine, which unfortunately may contain traces of milk. Are you gluten-intolerant? Our snowballs are gluten free.
- Full ingredient list
- Mild fat emulsion (vegetable fats, water, salt, emulsifiers: soy lecithin E322, mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids E471, acidulant: citric acid E330, colouring agent: beta-carotene E160a, flavourings), sugar, water, chocolate (cocoa mass, sugar, emulsifier: soy lecithin E322, natural flavouring: vanilla extract), cornflour, glucose syrup, flavouring: vanillin. The chocolate used contains at least 49% cocoa solids and is produced at a site which also processes milk and dairy products. Allergens: soy. May contain traces of milk.
- How many calories does one snowball contain?
- The calorie content of one 11-gramme snowball is about 53 kcal.
- Apart from snowballs, does Confiserie Larmuseau sell other products?
- Not yet, but we are working on new flavours and concepts. Let us know what you would like us to tantalise your taste buds with on our Facebook page or via info@confiserielarmuseau.com.
