Global Ice Molds

This Ice Cube Mold Offers You the World

— November 19, 2014 — Art & Design
This globe ice mold by Toy Zany is perfect for those who thirst for adventure.

It's hard to concentrate once you've been bitten by the travel bug! You just want to eat, sleep and breathe your next destination. This kitschy ice cube tray allows you to do that, no matter where in the world you're going. The mold, which is made out of a durable, BPA-free silicone material, is imprinted with an image of the earth. The mold creates a ice "circle" with a higher-than-average surface area, meaning it will outlast your typical cube.

Let your ice globe melt as you sip cocktails, whiskey and non-alcoholic beverages. We can't guarantee that you'll be more worldly for having done so, but you'll definitely feel like it!
