These are the best snowballs we've ever had! The quality of the ingredients surpassed my expectations. Such unique flavors has us craving more. If I had the extra money we would be here everyday 😅. I can honestly say no other snowballs will ever compare to the ones we had. Looking forward to going again soon to try some other flavors. Highly, highly recommend giving them a try.
You can find us at the Peggy once a week at least all summer!! They make the best snowballs!! Staff is friendly! And its just nice to walk the gardens while enjoying your snowball vs. Driving off
Soooooo good!! The flavors were phenomenal, and such beautiful gardens!

The Peggy at The Margaret Cleveland – Gourmet Snowballs is a delightful and charming snowball stand nestled in a well-tended garden in Baltimore. The stand has been operating for over a century, carrying on the city's tradition of serving shaved ice with a variety of creative syrups and condiments, including the classic egg custard flavor.
The cozy setup invites visitors to linger and enjoy their treats, with pink tables and chairs around the base of a large sycamore tree. The snowballs come in three sizes, and each cup features a brief history of the establishment. Guests can choose from an array of unique flavors, such as elderflower, cucumber, blue raspberry, dragon fruit, and strawberry rose, alongside more traditional options like egg custard and mango.
Despite occasionally dealing with impatient customers, the staff members are described as kind and delightful, adding to the overall welcoming atmosphere. The stand's homemade organic marshmallow toppings are a particular highlight, praised for their fluffy texture. Visitors can also explore the nearby shops and gardens, which offer a pleasant and inspiring setting for their snowball experience.
While the prices in the shops may be on the higher side, the Peggy is widely recommended as a must-visit destination, especially for those with a fondness for egg custard or a desire to immerse themselves in the charm and history of Baltimore's snowball culture.
