Product Description
The Mitour 37-cube honeycomb ice tray is a compact, flexible silicone mold designed for buyers who want more ice cubes per fill without sacrificing ease of release. Its hexagonal cell layout fits 37 individual cavities into a standard 20.5 × 12.5 cm footprint — enough to supply a full family gathering in a single freeze cycle.
Each cell is engineered with raised inner walls that act as overflow barriers, keeping liquids separate during filling. This is especially useful for layered or flavored ice (fruit chunks + juice, coffee + cream) where cross-contamination between cells ruins the visual effect. Once frozen, a simple press from the bottom pops all cubes out cleanly — no hot water, no waiting, no deformed cubes.
The tray is made from high-elasticity food-grade silicone that returns to its original shape immediately after twisting, folding, or stretching. A semi-transparent silicone cover sits flush over the tray to block freezer odors — a detail buyers consistently cite as the difference between ice that tastes clean and ice that tastes like last week's leftovers.

Standard 6–12 cube trays run out quickly at parties or for households that use ice constantly. 37 cubes per freeze cycle means fewer refills and uninterrupted drinks service. The hexagonal layout uses every centimeter of the tray footprint efficiently — no wasted space.
Each hexagonal cell has heightened inner walls that contain liquid within its own boundary. Pour water, juice, or coffee with fruit chunks directly into individual cells without liquid seeping into adjacent ones. Buyers making decorative or flavored ice report this as the single most frustrating failure point of flat-walled trays — Mitour's raised brim design solves it structurally.
Traditional ice trays require twisting or banging against a surface to release cubes, which often cracks older plastic trays or sends ice flying. Mitour's tray releases cubes by pressing upward from the flexible silicone bottom — cubes pop out individually with no deformation and land where you intend them to.
The included cover fits snugly over the full tray, blocking freezer air circulation that carries odors from stored food into uncovered ice. The semi-transparent material lets users see the freeze progress without removing the lid. For buyers retailing through Amazon or kitchen brands, this cover is a meaningful product differentiation point that justifies premium pricing.
The tray can be twisted, crumpled, and bent without losing its shape. Each cell returns to its original hexagonal form immediately after flexing. This durability matters for buyers sourcing for retail channels where product returns from deformation are a cost and review risk.
The four-step process printed on packaging makes the product self-explaining at retail: ① Add fruit or flavoring ingredients → ② Pour liquid (water, juice, coffee, tea) → ③ Freeze → ④ Press bottom to release. This positions the tray as a lifestyle kitchen tool, not just an ice maker — expanding use cases and appeal to food-lifestyle buyers.

Q1: What is the exact shape of the ice cubes — diamond or honeycomb?
The cells are hexagonal (honeycomb-shaped), not faceted diamonds. The "diamond silicone ice tray" label commonly used on Amazon refers to the honeycomb pattern, which appears faceted and gem-like when filled with clear liquid. Both search terms refer to this same product type.
Q2: Does the tray include a lid, or is it sold separately?
The lid is included with every tray. It is made from the same food-grade silicone and sits flush over all 37 cells to block dust and freezer odors during the freeze cycle.
Q3: Can I use this tray for anything other than water ice cubes?
Yes. The tray works with any liquid or semi-liquid that freezes: fruit juice, iced coffee, herbal tea, flavored water, puréed fruit with chunks, chocolate, or yogurt. Buyers use it for cocktail ice, cold brew coffee cubes, baby food portions, and decorative dessert elements.
Q4: What is the temperature range?
The tray is safe from -40°C to +230°C. It can go from freezer directly to dishwasher without warping or off-gassing.
Q5: How long does a full 37-cube tray take to freeze?
Freezing time depends on your freezer temperature and liquid type. Standard water at -18°C typically freezes solid in 3–5 hours. Juice or liquid with dissolved sugar may take slightly longer. Placing the cover on the tray during freezing does not significantly affect freeze time.
Q6: Will the silicone absorb freezer odors over time?
High-quality food-grade silicone does not absorb odors under normal use. The included cover prevents airborne freezer odors from reaching the ice surface. After extended use, any residual odor can be eliminated by washing with baking soda and warm water or running through a dishwasher cycle.
Q7: What is the minimum order quantity for custom orders?
MOQ varies by customization level. Standard color custom logo orders typically start at 500–1,000 units. New mold development orders have different MOQ requirements. Contact Mitour for a quote specific to your requirements.
Q8: Can Mitour produce this tray with our private label packaging?
Yes. Mitour provides full private label services including custom retail box design, hang tags, poly bag printing, and Amazon-ready labeling. Buyers may supply artwork files or work with Mitour's in-house design team.
Q9: Is this product compliant for sale in the EU and US markets?
The tray holds LFGB certification (EU food contact safety standard) and FDA compliance (US). Both certifications confirm that the silicone material does not leach harmful substances into food or liquid at any temperature within the rated range. REACH compliance documentation is available on request for EU import.
Q10: How do I clean the tray after use?
The tray is fully dishwasher safe (top rack recommended) and can be washed by hand with warm soapy water. The cover can be cleaned the same way. The flexible silicone surface does not retain ice residue or staining from colored liquids under normal washing conditions.
