The main action of The Hobbit takes place from Spring through the Summer, so there is no snow in terms of it posing a hazard; the party does not pass through any snow. The white stuff is mentioned, but only as 'scenery', on the peaks of the mountains. However, Bilbo's return to The Shire is delayed due to the risk of snow.
I'd suppose Snow-elves would only exist in a region which was permanently snowy, and we don't know of any that do. Though I
do like the sound of Snow-elves.
