Handfuls of snow are items with a variety of uses: you may use them on yourself (throw it at yourself) for the Wet status effect (No longer applies in 1.54), throw them on the floor to reveal invisible creatures, or press t to stack five of them to build a snow man. You can either randomly find them or head to Noyel and press g on an empty patch of ground. You must be in Noyel and standing on snow to pick up a handful of snow; snowy ground anywhere else doesn't work. Picking up a handful of snow consumes 10 points of stamina. It is currently unknown whether blessed or cursed status has any effect on snow man quality. When quaffed, they are equivalent to water and are a recommended item to treat anorexia.
Handfuls of snow weigh 0.0 and never melt. The inventory screen categorizes them with potions.

Elona Mobile[]
In Elona mobile, "handful of snow" is called "Snow". You can get snow by talking to <Moen> the juggler in Noyel.
You can craft Snow into Snowballs using a Special Crafting Table in Mayne or Handcrafting Table in Derphy. Snow is also used to craft snowmen (mobile).
