Housewares Solutions Froz Ice Ball Maker – Novelty Food-Grade Silicone Ice Mold Tray with 4 X 4.5cm Ball Capacity

Great that I can now make decent sized ice balls for my drinks, which last for a while. Bit of a faff filling it up with the small funnel though.But hey ho, no pain no gain.

If you can keep the water in the resulting ice balls are excellent, I found putting the water in through the funnel a bit fiddly and the seal between the two halves could be better as some water can leak out

Once you get used to how they work and how to make them as spherical as possible, these are great moulds! The freezer tray you put them in needs to be perfectly flat. Personally I used to carefully add water the specified level, push the mould down etc, but I still found results a bit random.Now I just fill it right up to the top, squash it together, freeze it and chip off the 'rings' with a spoon edge afterwards - I find this quicker than having to carefully assemble it with perfect water levels before freezing.The spherical ice definitely lasts longer than cube ones and dilutes your drinks less for a fair while.

I love that this is food grade and non toxic. However, these soft silicone trays do not close together very well. There is an awful lot of overspill from the bottom layer before the top fills up.You have to balance these delicate trays more carefully than normal in the freezer because they spill at the slightest touch or wobble.Fine for special occasions when the freezer isn't full though!

The product pictures clearly show ice in the tray but I was dismayed...nay, distraught, to discover no ice on opening the box. It appears I have to make my own ice!!!Nevertheless, this is an amazing thing. Just remember that you also need a freezer for making the aforementioned ice.

Although a little small if you have gin balloon glasses, this is easy to use and makes ice balls that don’t melt as quickly as normal ice cubes.

I was very excited about making cocktails for the family over the bank holiday weekend and I ordered a few bits from Amazon including these moulds. Easy to use and came out fine. I thought the spheres were a bit bigger and I I was s bit disappointed about the price since my daughter bought them somewhere else for a third of the price.

Read some of the reviews and glad I wasn't put off by them. Not really sure what others were expecting but they suit my requirements. The ice isn't clear but it's ice, they are not perfectly round but they are round enough. Good size, very simple to fill, very pleased. Very quick delivery too. Might buy another one I think
