A '''snow block''' is a full-sized [[block]] of [[snow]].
|
||
|
||
== Obtaining ==
|
||
=== Breaking ===
|
||
If mined with a [[Silk Touch]] enchanted [[shovel]], snow blocks drop themselves; without the enchantment, 4 [[snowball]]s are dropped instead. Nothing drops if mined with any other [[tool]], even if enchanted with Silk Touch.
|
||
|
||
A snow block can also be obtained by mining 8 snow layers with a Silk Touch shovel.<ref name="MC-134408">{{bug|MC-134408||Breaking 8-level snow layer with Silk Touch drops snow block}}</ref>
|
||
{{breaking row|horizontal=1|Snow Block|Shovel|Wood}}
|
||
Unlike [[snow layer]]s, snow blocks do not melt from higher levels of light under normal circumstances, and are not destroyed by water.
|
||
|
||
=== Natural generation ===
|
||
Snow blocks generate on the ground in the [[ice spikes]], [[grove]], [[snowy slopes]], [[frozen peaks]] and [[jagged peaks]] biomes, they form the walls of [[igloo]]s and some [[snowy tundra]] [[village]] houses and can also generate on top of some [[iceberg]]s.

|

|
||
== Usage ==
|
||
=== Melting ===
|
||
Unlike [[snow]], snow blocks do not melt when a [[heat block]]{{only|bedrock|education|short=1}} or a light-emitting block is nearby, nor will they melt in dry biomes.
|
||
|
||
=== Snow golems ===
|
||
{{FakeImage|align=right|{{BlockGrid|s=Snow Block|p=Carved Pumpkin|p|s|s}}|Snow Golem build configuration}}
|
||
|
||
Snow blocks are also used to make [[snow golem]]s by putting 2 snow blocks on top of another and a [[carved pumpkin]], [[jack o'lantern]] or [[pumpkin]]{{only|bedrock|short=1}} on the top as the head. Note that the carved pumpkin has to be placed last for this to work. This can be done sideways and upside-down, as well.

== Issues ==
|
||
{{Issue list}}
|
||
|
||
== Trivia ==
|
||
* Snow may still fall on top of snow blocks, making them look taller than they actually are.
|
||
* When a snow block is on grass, the grass block changes to a different "snowy" texture as if a snow layer is on it. However, because snow is not transparent to light, the grass changes to dirt shortly after.
|
||
* Snow blocks, as well as [[snow layer]]s, are the only blocks that require a tool other than a [[pickaxe]] to be mined successfully.
|
||
* A snow block is considered the whitest block in Minecraft, more than [[Concrete|white concrete]].
