Ice stick silicone mold METALTEX 253538001 for 10 ice sticks, black, fits sticks 70 x 15 mm

The METALTEX silicone ice stick mold model 253538001 produces up to 10 uniform ice sticks measuring 70 x 15 mm. Made from flexible, food-safe silicone in black, the mold is designed for easy removal of individual sticks and is narrow enough to fit through slim-necked bottles and containers. It is intended for freezing water, fruit juices or other drink bases to create portioned ice sticks for beverages, children's snacks and blended drinks.

Advantages

The silicone construction provides flexibility that simplifies unmolding and reduces the risk of cracking. Food-safe material resists sticking and is easy to clean by hand or in a dishwasher. The compact, rectangular layout produces consistent sticks that fit through narrow openings, allowing direct freezing and insertion into bottles, flasks or small containers. The black color masks minor stains and gives a neutral look suitable for household use.

Suitable for

• Making portioned ice sticks for cocktails, smoothies and iced coffee
• Freezing fruit juice or puree into single-serve snacks for children
• Preparing pre-measured cold elements for water bottles and narrow-necked flasks
• Creating flavored or infused ice for drinks without large trays

When it may not be suitable

This mold is designed specifically for sticks sized 70 x 15 mm and may not be suitable if you need larger ice blocks or special shapes. It is not intended for use with extremely hot liquids; pour only cooled or room-temperature mixtures to avoid damage to the silicone.

Key specifications

• Capacity: up to 10 ice sticks
• Individual stick size: 70 x 15 mm
• Material: flexible, food-safe silicone
• Color: black
• Suitable for dishwasher cleaning

How to use

Rinse the mold before first use. Place the mold on a flat surface and fill each cavity with water, juice or other liquid up to the recommended level. Transfer the mold to the freezer on a stable, level shelf and allow sufficient freezing time until solid. To remove sticks, gently flex the silicone and push each stick out from the bottom. Clean after use with warm water and mild detergent or place in the dishwasher if preferred.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure individual stick dimensions (70 x 15 mm) match your intended containers or bottle openings
• Consider whether you need silicone suitable for hot liquids (this product is for cold/freezing use)
• Check available freezer space and whether the mold’s rectangular footprint fits your shelves

Usage recommendations

For best results, use cooled liquids and avoid overfilling cavities. To add flavor or texture, mix fruit pieces or herbs into the liquid before freezing. When inserting sticks into narrow-neck bottles, slightly warm the bottle opening with water to ease insertion if necessary.
