That's an MSU football player driving 30 to 45 minutes for shaved ice. As an authentic shaved ice story goes, that's the one I think about most. It's why we keep doing what we do.
Why Snow Stars in Holt

_edited.jpg)
We’ve already shown up for Holt. Snow Stars has served Holt School District events, catered a Holt Middle School orientation, and earned a 5★ Google review from a Local Guide after a Holt-area church event. That’s the south-Lansing-metro proof stack: schools trust us with their families, and churches trust us with their congregations.
Anti-franchise, not anti-competitor - Ramon shaves the ice himself at every event. Block-shaved (soft snow-like texture, not crushed). 100% raw cane sugar syrups, never corn syrup. Fresh fruit cut the morning of the event.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does shaved ice catering cost in Holt?
Three packages: Rising Star $250 (60 minutes, up to 50 guests), Superstar $400 (90 minutes, up to 100), Mega Star $550 (120 minutes, up to 150). Every package includes setup, service, cleanup, 13 standard flavors plus 4 signature combos, and Ramon on-site personally. Holt is 15 minutes from Dimondale - no travel surcharge.
Have you worked with Holt School District before, and how far in advance should I book?
Yes - Snow Stars has catered Holt School District events and served a Holt Middle School orientation. We carry an STFU license through the Barry-Eaton District Health Department, the Michigan food-service credential schools require for outside vendors. Two to three weeks of lead time is comfortable for private events; school-calendar bookings (field days, orientations, end-of-year) book faster, so reach out as soon as you have a date.
Do you cater indoor and winter events?
Yes. Indoor venues and off-season bookings are both available - Holt School District facilities, Holt Library, and most Holt church gathering spaces all work for shave ice service. Tell us the venue and date and we’ll confirm the setup details (standard outlet, water source within ~25 feet, 10×10 footprint).
What’s the weather backup for a Holt event?
Holt School District facilities, Holt Library, and most Holt church gathering spaces have indoor backup options that work for shave ice service. For pure outdoor Holt events on Cedar St or in Aurelius Rd neighborhoods, we work with you to reschedule at no charge if weather makes the date unsafe.
