In order to combat tepid drink temperatures, the Iced Carafe was invented as a brilliant solution. Along one side of this [drink flask](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/corkcicle-cool-flask), a ridged snowflake pattern provides a textured surface for ice to stick to. Fill the bottle to the marked line with water and lay it on its side to freeze for a few hours. Once ready, the bottle will have a solid layer of ice all along one side, keeping the entire contents refreshingly cold. Anyone who finds [ice cubes floating](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sphere-ice-makers) around in their drinks annoying will want to get the Iced Carafe with its built-in ice mold. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.2/10 - Popularity: 47% | Activity: 12% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Kitchen](https://www.trendhunter.com/kitchen) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Iced Carafe:** Innovative beverage flask with built-in ice mold for keeping drinks cold. - **Textured Ice Molds:** Innovative ice molds with textured patterns for better ice adhesion and longer-lasting coldness. - **Freezing Containers:** Innovative freezing containers designed for keeping drinks or food cold for longer periods of time. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Consumer Goods:** The Iced Carafe and other innovative ice molds and freezing containers have great potential to disrupt the consumer goods industry by offering new and effective solutions for keeping drinks and food cold. - **Hospitality:** The Iced Carafe and other innovative ice molds and freezing containers have great potential to disrupt the hospitality industry by offering new and effective solutions for keeping drinks cold and refreshing for guests. - **Outdoor Recreation:** The Iced Carafe and other innovative ice molds and freezing containers have great potential to disrupt the outdoor recreation industry by offering convenient and effective solutions for keeping drinks and food cold during outdoor activities. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Cooling Beer Cubes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beercubes1.md) - [Designer Glass Coffee Carriers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ember-cold-tumbler.md) - [Coffee-Cooling Travel Mugs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beverage-tumbler.md) - [Eco-Friendly Ice Straw Molds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ice-straw.md) - [Coffee-Brewing Carafes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miir-new-standard-carafe.md) - [Star-Shaped Ice Cubes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-shaped-ice-cubes.md) - [Efficient At-Home Ice Makers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/athome-ice-maker.md) - [Freezable Coffee Concentrates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pop-and-bottle-super-concentrate.md) - [Modern Stainless Steel Carafes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/standard-carafe.md)
