✨ Exciting News for Downtown Marksville! ✨

We’re thrilled to announce a brand-new tenant in the old Poofy’s building! From the start, it was important to us not just to fill the space, but to find the right tenant — one with a great vision, a quality product, and a commitment to adding something unique to the overall growth of our downtown area.

That’s why we’re so excited to welcome Cliff and Heather, who have already built an amazing snowball stand here in Marksville. Now, neighbor kids can ride their bikes downtown for a sweet treat after school, and families will have a fun new stop right on the square.

🍧 Welcome to the Square, Cliff and Heather! We can’t wait to see all the memories made at your new spot.

❗️We have exciting news❗️
We are so excited to share our new location with everyone!! We are headed downtown. We want to bring an inviting atmosphere where families and children can hang out. We will have indoor and outdoor seating, outdoor games, and more.
We will still have everyone’s favorite snow cones, nachos, Frito pies , milkshakes and ice cream at our bigger and better location. We will also now have dirty sodas or as we will call them DIRTY “Sno-das”!!
New name and logo coming soon!🌊
Tentative opening date is February 2026.
