How long does it take for them to freeze?

I've had no problem with them freezing overnight. Time-specific, I am not sure.

I used hot water so it would be quicker. I put it in the freeze before bed around midnight and at 6am it was frozen solid. I love them!

As long as it takes a normal ice tray...depends upon the quality and speed of the compressor and the sealing quality of the freezing compartment.

HI I usually plan ahead and make a bunch. Keeping them in ziploc bags. I will leave them overnight and then make another batch in the AM. Usually 12 is enough. I love them and they are a huge hit!! I have thought of trying to rinse and reuse but.....hmmmmm just don't know..lol

I use this mold for making chocolate shot glasses, so I really can't say how long it takes to freeze water. To fully set chocolate, it takes about 2-3 hrs in the refrigerator.

It has been several years since we tried them so I can't remember exactly. I believe it would be about the same or just a bit longer as for large ice cube. They don't require much water. We did find though that they did not keep a true shape of a shot glass very well. Also be sure to set them on a level surface.

It depends on how long the ice pack has been in the freezer before it is used. The ice pack had been in the freezer for two days when I used it the first time and after an hour it was still partially "frozen."

In general it only takes a few hours to thaw, regardless of the container. I typically didn't freeze these though, I used milk storage bags

Not the pre freezed ones. These takes longer but since it is very small, couple hours should do

Yes, they freeze just fine, 3-4 " for body width is about average...enjoy ! ( ps. What time is dinner ;)

I didn't know, so I put mine in the freezer for 12 hours at minus 17 degrees F. They are still as soft and flexible as at room temperature! Amazing!

frozen 45-50 minutes, be sure to put a strip of foil around the edges. If not frozen should take about 35-40 minutes. The contents must be thoroughly chilled before baking though, that is important.

I always freeze them right away - they thaw very quickly - just get them out as you need them. I have noticed a deterioration in flavor after several years in the freezer, but they certainly last a long time. I would guess a year would be just fine.

Try and freeze one and see in a couple of days, in our house they never last that long ... but I am sure they will be OK as the nuts freeze well...

I put mine in the bath tub with a few inches of water and let them soak for half an hour or so and then pop them into the freezer! It's that simple. I re-hydrate them from time to time as the part that freezes seems to get smaller over time. These things really keep things items quite cold. I put one on the bottom of my lunch bag and one on top of my food as well. I have no regrets with this purchase!!!

I have had them on my back or laying on them for well over two hours and they were still cold. I had a three hour drive the other day and had them behind my back, they were still cold when I got there Tip, don't freeze them silver side together, they won't last. It is best if you can freeze them in different parts of the freezer so they don't touch, but I freeze mine white side to white side so the silver side is not touching them.

The base the silicone molds are attached to is hollow, so there's no solution in the base to freeze.. The instructions say fill, then freeze at zero degrees for at least 6 hours. I'm sure freezing time varies depending on your freezer and probably the substance you're trying to freeze, but you won't have a popsicle in 10 minutes.

Soak them in water for 20 to 30 minutes. Then freeze them until frozen solid. They work wonderfully. I use them for physical therapy, since they retain the cold for 4-5 hours.

Freeze. They feel like they are gel filled but the freeze hard. Like any ice pack you would get with a small cooler.

It's hard to say....we used them up in a fairly short time. Be sure they are tightly sealed in a plastic bag or they do get a little hard. I'd think a couple of weeks would be fine. Of course, you could freeze part of the package if you thought you would not use them in a while.

Each square is filled with water(?) and when you put them in the freezer you have lots of little ice cubes which will melt, but they won't turn to liquid and spoil anything. You will just have liquid again in the little squares. If you put them in an ice chest with the lid closed, they will keep food cold for a day is my guess, but I think it would depend on how much you open the chest and how hot it is. I wouldn't expect them to stay frozen for more than a day.
