sn0wbreeze is a tool used to create custom IPSWs to restore, similar to PwnageTool. Can be used to jailbreak and unlock when making the custom IPSW. This is a GUI of XPwn for Windows written in C# (previously Visual Basic) and is developed by iH8sn0w. It is released under GPL v3 license, and previous versions source are available on GitHub, however this violates the GPL.

Because versions of iTunes past iTunes 11.1 rehashes all of the restore firmwares used, restoring Sn0wbreeze CFW files on iTunes 11 and up is impossible.
