Polar Bear Ice Cube Tray

polar bear ice cube tray Polar Bear Ice Cube Tray
We’re really digging this functionally cute Polar Bear Ice Cube Tray. Brrrr, he’s just chillin’. The ice cubes are formed in his legs and since the entire container is closed up, your ice won’t absorb food odors or spill any water before it freezes. The other neat part is that you can pour the ice cubes out his mouth into your drink without touching the ice. He’s BPA free and dishwasher safe. Plus it’s just so cool, who wouldn’t want a polar bear in their freezer?

The obligatory creepy hands-on video is waiting just past the break.
