I'm not endorsing or defending it, but this thing makes crystal clear ice cubes, not normal cloudy cubes. The design allows water to freeze from the top downward, forcing air out of the bottom as it freezes. To do this It's insulated, which is what makes it so bulky.

Incorrect. I've owned one of these for a year now. This makes crystal clear ice balls unlike the device you suggested. It's no money grab, it's a legitimately great item and I would suggest reserving judgement until you try it for yourself.

This clear ice mold is aimed at making crystal clear cubes or balls for cocktails, with the insulated top down freezing design helping push air out so the ice comes out clearer than standard cloudy molds. The clear ice is described as denser, slower melting, and better looking, which adds a strong wow factor for hosting. The 2.5 inch size is also called out as larger than typical 2 inch molds. The main caveat is that clarity depends heavily on the water used, and the bulky insulated build takes up more freezer space and freezes slowly.

Common Questions (4)

  • This mold is described as making clearer ice than standard silicone Tovolo-style molds, which can come out cloudy. Tovolo molds are also noted as cheaper and able to make clear cubes with extra steps, while this insulated design is bulkier and takes more freezer space.

  • It can make crystal-clear ice by freezing water from the top downward and forcing air out the bottom. The insulated design is what enables the clarity, though the result can still depend on water quality.

  • The mold makes 2.5-inch ice pieces, which is larger than the 2-inch size some shoppers expected. That size fits smaller glasses like Glencairns, but it may be too small if you want the larger bartender-style cubes shown in comparison photos.

  • It typically takes a full day to freeze because the insulated design slows the process. After freezing, the ice can be popped out and stored in a ziplock bag.

Do yourself a favor and get the huge 2inch cubes instead. It still looks nice

Incredibly boneheaded overseas money-grab, even at that price. Hilarous that it says "space-saving design." Totally unnecessary compared to this which works perfectly (quick tap releases it) at half the net cost: https://www.amazon.com/Tovolo-Ice...B007ACTN54

I was able to make crystal clear cubes with the tovolo ones......I remember having to use hot water and maybe one more thing, but I eventually stopped doing it all together when I got a fridge that makes ice

That doesn't make clear ice and it's $0.02 cheaper not half price.

I've got a couple different silicone molds like this and they work fine but are cloudy

Tovolo makes sphere but not clear cubes.

Grabbed one, thanks! First $10 or less mold that I've seen that works and makes cubes fairly clear. Bonus it's 2.5" VS 2".
