This groovy Kiwi Bird silicon ice cube tray can be used for making Kiwi ice cubes or confectionery.
It's lots of fun to have Kiwi ice cubes for parties, or Kiwi shaped butter pats at a luncheon, or Kiwi shaped chocolates or gummy candy.
Ice Iconz ice trays are made of food grade silicon rubber, are food safe, dishwasher safe and can withstand temperatures from -50 to 250 degrees Celsius.
Here's a recipe for Gummy Candy:
75g (3 oz) plain gelatine
2 cups fruit juice (berry flavoured is great)
1 cup sugar
Combine all ingredients in a saucepan. Mix well. Heat on medium until the mixture turns from cloudy to clear. Lightly grease your Kiwi ice cube tray moulds with oil or non-stick spray. Pour the hot mixture into your moulds, or use a turkey baster to squirt the mixture into the moulds. Leave to set on your kitchen bench, or put in the freezer for 5-10 mins to solidify. Carefully pop out your Kiwis! If you want sour gummy candy, roll the Kiwis in a combination of 1 tsp citric acid (you'll find this in the supermarket baking aisle near the baking soda) and 1/2 cup castor sugar.
NB: Some fruit juices are not suitable for setting - avoid kiwifruit, mango and pineapple juices.
