Examples of yes and no. These chocolates show both a 6 point snowflake and an 8 pointed fake.
If it has 6 point, then it is in fact a snowflake. If it has 8 points, then it is NOT. It’s also accurate to have 12 points. More rare, but still accurate are 3 and 9 points. You see snowflakes, or snow crystals naturally form this way. Eight points will never occur in nature.
