Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Fred Cool Jewels Ice Cube Tray
Customer Review: Fun for novelty, hard to get perfectly clear
Summary: 3 Stars
I was in the market for some silicone ice cube trays and when I saw these Cool Jewels, I had to try them out. Their "neatness" factor is awesome, but unfortunately their "usefulness" factor is below average.
Do not buy these if you want a ice tray - the cubes are too small (melt quick) and since it's a wobbly silicone tray with many jewels that require a fill to the top, it's sort of messy. You're better off just buying the straight square silicone trays.
Do buy these if you want a novelty item to plink into guests' drink glasses. However, since these are pretty small and melt quick, you'll probably be buying quite a few trays.
It should also be noted that in order to get the perfectly clear ice cubes as shown in the pictures, you've got to move the water around every once and a while so that the air bubbles don't get trapped in the forming cube and cause the white spots. In other words, expect your diamond cubes to have some pretty visible flaws.
Customer Review: Great Novelty Ice Cubes!
Summary: 5 Stars
The "Cool Jewels" are very...er..well...cool ice cubes :-) The mold makes 6 jewel shaped ice cubes at a time. These come out of the silicone just fine and I don't expect any problems with it holding up over time.
For a little bit of fun, try adding a drop or two of food coloring or use a colored juice.
A little inexpensive fun! Recommended!

Interesting product. Good idea. But for some strange reason these ice cubes melt quicker than ice cubes made in the "regular" ice cube trays. The "jewel" shape doesn't last very long either even with a beverage that's already chilled. Got a cheaper "shaped" ice cube tray at Ikea.Customer Review: Interesting stuff
Summary: 4 Stars
It is interesting to watch and to see it cool my beverage at the same time. But one minor issue, due to the soft silicon base, I could not get the perfect shape of the cube every time!Customer Review: Jewel Heist

There was nothing jewel like in these ice cubes - I am going to try a premium super clear bottled water next time, if I bother with a next time! They are also a lot smaller than they look in the photo; nothing like the hand carved huge cubes I was trying to fake.....
