Best Shaved Ice in Sand Springs | Sand Springs, Oklahoma

In June of 2014, something happened in Sand Springs, Oklahoma. A new business moved in, a small snow cone stand, on Charles Page boulevard in front of the Cinema 8. Unlike other snow cone stands, Harper’s was about more than just a simple snow cone. It was about family. The idea for Harper’s Hut came to William Nozak in 2014 and he and his wife were soon joined in their new exploit by friend and business partner Daniel Nix. Sandites flocked to this new snow cone stand for many reasons and many were soon praising it as the best shaved ice in Sand Springs. Within two months, Harper’s Hut was voted by the Tulsa World readers as “The Best in the World.”

So what makes Harper’s Hut the best shaved ice in Sand Springs? For starters, they have the best ice machine in Sand Springs. The Harper’s Hut snow ball maker shaves the cubes into the perfect texture to absorb the syrup completely and feel as soft as actual snow. Secondly, Harper’s has the best syrup on the market, hand selected from a dozen different vendors by Harper’s official taste-test team, whereas most other stands simply buy all their product from the same vendor. Finally, Harper’s has some of the most innovative creations around, including the trademarked “Volcano,” and Universal Studio’s “Harry Potter Butterbeer.” No other shaved ice stand around has such deliciously original gourmet creations as Harper’s Hut. Today’s flavor of the day is our delicious Tiramisu. It’s not just a Tiramisu syrup, it’s an original Harper’s creation formed from several different syrups. Harper’s takes no shortcuts in providing you a delicious dessert.

Despite having the best shaved ice in Sand Springs, Harper’s Hut’s true success lies in their family values and mission to bring people closer together. William believes that everyone who comes to Harper’s Hut is family, and that attitude has worn off on his employees. They welcome you with a smile and an outgoing attitude that makes you feel warm and welcome. You don’t have to stand in line after you’ve ordered, you can go sit at a picnic table and listen to the music, or throw a football or Frisbee with your kids, and our snowrista will hand deliver it to you as soon as it’s ready. If it’s a Friday night, you can stick around till dark and join us for our free family movie night on our giant inflatable screen.
