Cooler's cold contents

Ice blocks are frozen chunks of water, either cut from natural sources or manufactured for cooling purposes.

In some regions, particularly Australia and New Zealand, ice block is the standard term for what Americans call a popsicle or ice pop—a frozen treat on a stick: The kids got ice blocks from the corner shop.
