ice molds

Cube-making containers

Ice molds are containers for freezing water into shaped pieces.

Standard ice cube trays produce rectangular blocks, but specialty molds create spheres, stars, or novelty shapes for cocktails and parties: She bought silicone ice molds shaped like skulls for Halloween.

The term also applies to molds for frozen desserts and popsicles.
