Ice Cube tray uses..

Here are a few uses for Ice Cube trays that I found online...great ideas ladies!! Enjoy experimenting! I think I might go and get a couple of more trays for my freezer to get organized!

Fruit juice ice cubes – Pour your favorite fruit juice in the tray and place in the freezer to make a summer treat for your kids.

Snack tray – Fill each opening with kid-friendly snacks such as fish crackers, raisins, grapes, carrot sticks, cereal, etc. This is perfect for little fingers and makes a fun serving dish.

Cookie or cupcake decorating – Fill an ice cube tray with various sprinkles and candies to decorate frosted cookies, cupcakes or ice cream sundaes. Great idea for a child’s party.

Lemonade cubes – Pour lemonade into the ice cube tray and freeze. Once frozen, add to your glass of water for a refreshing taste.

Spices – Freeze your fresh garden spices for the winter. Just add the spices and a bit of water to the tray.

Cookie dough – Scoop cookie dough into each ice cube compartment and freeze then pop out and place in a ziploc bag or tupperware container. You now have the perfect size cookies ready to bake.

Iced coffee – Pour your leftover coffee into each ice cube compartment and freeze. Now you can use them to make frozen coffee drinks...in the blender or just put in a glass.

Freeze raw eggs!crack them, give them a little mixing and pour each egg into an ice cube tray. After they are completely froze, you can take them out of the ice cube tray and place them in a plastic bag or a freezer container. When you need eggs, just put each ice cube egg into a bowl and let it thaw in the fridge!

Paint holder – Pour different colored paint into each ice cube compartment for mess-free painting with the kids.

Craft organizer – Use to organize small craft supplies.

Office supplies – Place an ice cube tray inside your desk to help contain your supplies such as paper clips, pushpins, rubber bands, etc.

Dad’s work bench organizer – Store nails, screws and miscellaneous tiny things to keep dad’s work area clean and organized.
