Gadgets & Gizmos: Trudeau Ice Sphere Mold

Trudeau Ice Sphere Mold

We’ve heard of local bartenders hand-chiseling ice into spheres and cubes for cocktails. And we definitely see the appeal of slow-melting ice for high-end spirits.

But the idea of doing it by hand seems like too much work and time. And even if you had the will and time, finding a large block of ice poses a whole new challenge. But that doesn’t mean you have to miss out on this trend in cocktails. With a Trudeau Ice Sphere Mold you can easily and effortlessly make ice spheres at home in your own freezer. The two-piece mold snaps together for a watertight seal, and features funnel-like openings for easy filling. Silicone divots on the bottom let you push the frozen spheres from the mold. We found the large, slow-melting ice ideal for enjoying a whiskey on the rocks.

A cube mold is also available.
