A brilliant ice tray that allows you to make ice cubes quickly and pour them out without ever having to actually touch the ice
Just fill the bottle-shaped ice maker with water, stick it in the freezer, pop the sides once the water is frozen, and pour the cubes into your glass.
Icebreaker is a small biz based in Texas that sells this genius ice cube solution.
Promising review: “We have a small freezer and no icemaker, and have been using fiddly trays for years. Icebreaker Pop has changed everything! No more leaky ice trays spilling in the freezer or on the way to the freezer, and no ice picking up weird smells and tastes from the freezer. Icebreaker Pop is self contained and easy to use: you fill it up with water (but be careful not to overfill, because it does expand as it freezes. Physics!), seal the top, and put it in the freezer. Once it’s frozen, you lay it on a flat surface, press down hard on it a couple of times on each side to crack the ice, and pull apart with both handles. You now have 18 cubes of clean ice that dispense from the opening, eliminating the need to touch the cubes as you add them to your glass. The cubes are a little smaller than from regular ice trays, but that’s OK with us. Icebreaker Pop is also cool-looking and easy to clean; it’s made up of three easy-to-separate pieces that are a snap to wash thoroughly. Very happy with this product!” — Leah Koepp
