Did you know that ice cubes were originally invented to lower the ambient room temperature?
American physician and humanitarian John Gorrie built a refrigerator
in 1844 with the purpose of cooling air. His refrigerator produced ice
which he hung from the ceiling in a basin. Gorrie can be considered the
creator of ice cubes, but his aim was not to cool drinks: he used the
ice to lower the ambient room temperature[1].
But who said that ice cubes should be cube-shaped?
Silicone ice cube trays can create any
shape we want – from snowflakes to brains and guns. So, why not spice up
your next party with one of these creative custom shaped ice cubes?
