Almost excellentJul 30, 2008
By Sean H.
I got a couple of these recently and I have to say... they are almost excellent. They do their job and make ice. And beyond that, they make really cool looking ice! The only thing keeping me from giving them 5 stars is the fact that they're kind of a pain to fill and put in the freezer without spilling, due to their lengthwise flexibility. there's no rim around the edge like in traditional ice trays to keep the overflow off your floor, pants, and cat.(I got a small 99 cent plastic tray that holds two of them and I just bring it to the sink, fill them, and put the whole kit in the freezer) But really... that's a small price to pay for really freakin' cool ice cubes. If your guests are as spooky as mine, they will be impressed.

 LOVE THESEFeb 20, 2009

At first, I couldn't get the ice out and thought they were a pain, but if you just run warm water over the back for second or two, the ice comes right out without fail! They are adorable, and are easy to see what they are even in drinks! I love these.

Review for Craft UseAug 22, 2009
By M. McNalis
I didn't buy this product for making ice cubes; I bought it for molding plastic resin for making jewelery/magnets/etc.
As far as that goes, they work great! Once the resin has fully cured they pop out easily and nicely from these well-made silicone molds. I can only guess that they would work great for making ice cubes as well if they can handle the torture test of using liquid plastic in them.
I bought many molds to try out and these were definitely my favourites, by far! The skulls are adorable and the cross-bones are a very nice addition. Both have considerable detail and the mold itself is very well made!

Kitsch & fun, all in one!Sep 18, 2009
By Z. Ahmad
I bought this, the teeth, guitar, and jewel ice trays. I read the reviews and was aware of the difficulty some people had in popping the cubes out. Personally I didn't think it was that bad. Perhaps my expectation was worse than the actual outcome. They definitely didn't pop out like normal harder plastic trays, but it doesn't take that long to pop them out and it wasn't really a big deal. The detail is great and the size of the cubes are nice. Volume wise they tend to be about the same if not more than regular cubes. Yes, you have to either freeze in advance, or order numerous trays if you are trying to amass a large quantity. Knowing that the tray is made of cooking-grade silicon, I expected the tray to be flexible and not rigid like standard ice cube trays. As stated in other reviews this does make it difficult to get from sink to freezer without spillage. However, I can deal with this knowing the outcome is supercool looking ice. I simply used a measuring cup to fill the trays once they were already placed in the freezer. One thing that is kind of a bummer is that depending on what you're drinking you can't see the ice. I've taken to freezing other liquids than water and that helps with being able to see the great detail. It also helps with adding flavor. When I use my lemon or lime jewels, I don't even need a fruit wedge. Grape and cranberry juice look fantastic in the teeth. I can't wait for Halloween! I will definitely buy Fred Flare products again!!!!!!

A little tricky and not dishwasher safe, but otherwise good.Dec 21, 2010
By Jmargaria
I loved having this tray, and yes the ice cubes were a bit hard to get out but I found that if I ran the bottom of the tray under hot water for a few seconds the ice cubes came out with no problem.
My only complaint is that after having used it for months I came home from college in the summer and my mother stuck it in the dishwasher. Though it says dishwasher safe it warped and is pretty much useless now. As long as you don't put it in the dishwasher and store it flat it should be fine.
