Looks Cool and Really Works Well — Better than others I have tried and reviewed The Tovolo Sphere ice molds are hard to beat for the price. They arrive packaged well with decent instructions printed on the box. Anybody who has grown up with Tupperware will know how to use them right out of the box. I ordered (2) sets to start with and have since ordered more not only for me and the wife; but have sent them as gifts to other single malt drinkers as well.Rather then sit here and describe them….instead here are some tips to get them to perform:1.

If prefered, you can even add fruit and stuff into the molds for presentation.This morning, I used 2 spheres to chill a very large cafe latte.
