A container for moulding ice cubes (plate 3/3) comprising a rectangular tray (2) having tapering octagonal indents (3), and a hollow, smooth lid portion (4) connected to the tray (2) via two side slide channels (5) allowing the lid to be moved freely in both directions. The indented element (2) receives water to be frozen in an amount corresponding to the volume of the indents (3). The lid (4) is mounted in said slide channels (5) prior to storage and the entire container (1) is placed on its indented side (2) to allow the water to freeze. Removal of the ice cubes from the mould is achieved by a simple twisting of the ends of the containers (1), whereby the ice cubes fall into the lid (4) which is in a folded back position (fig. 8). This method of easily controlling ice cube removal avoids the annoyance caused by the sudden and simultaneous ejection of the ice cubes which often fall out of conventional moulding containers during the handling thereof.
