Steve, I have theTovolo King cube trays. I like them because I like
to sip GOOD liquor just on the rocks, and all you need is one big cube
in the glass. Plus the big cube doesn't melt fast. They are easy
to get out of the tray since the tray is silicone. Tovolo makes
standard size cubes as well. They are not cheap but they will last
forever.
I bought mine from Amazon.
