Review on 🧊 Housewares Solutions Froz Ice Ball Maker: Food-Grade Silicone Mold Tray with 4 X 4.5cm Ball Capacity - Novelty Ice Mold for Perfectly Chilled Drinks by Rodney Handy

Revainrating 5 out of 5

5 stars but with some caveats/warnings

The balls will NOT look like the picture (perfectly round and transparent) so just give up hope. At best, they get out of shape in a small ring along the equator. The transparency of the ice is the same as any other ice. So if you want the perfect round crystal balls floating in a stylish glass of whiskey, this isn't going to happen. I couldn't get it right after a lot of effort and trial and error (I followed the instructions and then tried several methods I read online - first boil water, add different amounts of water, break the ice off the sculpture in different ways. nothing worked) . Despite all of that, I still rate this product highly because I fucking love ice balls. They're huge, they don't melt, they're easy to make, and while you can only make four at a time with this mold, I quickly filled the ice bucket in the freezer. I've had the mold for a few months now and it hasn't left my freezer or gone through the process of making new ice cream balls. I'll add a photo of a random ball from my freezer. I could probably make the ring smaller on the sides with some effort, but eventually you stop caring how it looks. The ring melts quickly. Doesn't matter.
