National Purebred Dog Day

2 hours ago

We love sharing cool stuff with our readers, and in this case, we have a REALLY cool item to pass along, one that is also HOT! Your head will explode (in a good way) when you can see what you can do with one of these. Family made-in-America Cool Dog Trays are FDA approved food-safe, machine-washable, freezer-safe, and microwave-safe molds from which you can make ice cubes, baked goods, soap, and resin art (like Christmas tree lights!) The trays made from silicone sourced in the USA are processed using a cold pour technique.In our view, the best part is that each mold is based on hand-sculpted pieces created by company founder and Great Dane fan, Rebecca. Because these are hand sculpted, there is an attention to bone structure and muscle we haven’t seen in similar products. These are especially obvious when the recipe is for a baked good. It was a four-year odyssey to fine tune the process. Rebecca reached out to China manufacturers, injection mold firms, and vacuum forming companies only to be told repeatedly that handmade sculpture weren’t capable of being recreating for a manufacturing type of scenario.Oh, the joy of proving them wrong. Cool Dog Trays are a complete family operation: Mixing the silicone, printing invoices, shipping and handling, website design, social media updates, and designing and pouring the trays are performed by her young son, and no, you can’t have him, we asked. At present, there are 14 breeds available, and Rebecca is trying to sculpt 7 -15 additional breeds every week. Her goal is to get all AKC breeds done. We asked about the owners of rare breeds who have trouble finding anything in their breed. Rebecca says that she likes to get a commitment of 30 tray orders before she can finalize the process and put them into production, and given the nature of the work, we can see why. This shouldn’t be hard for breed clubs or breed owners who know each other. You can see the available breeds at the link below.We are hoping that by the time National Purebred Dog Day rolls around next May, Cool Dog Tray subscription boxes will be available (and maybe offered as a Photo Challenge prize!)With the holidays coming, the only thing that would limit what you can do with a Cool Dog Tray is your imagination. Halloween and Thanksgiving treats, soaps for gift giving, tree ornaments – or a string of ornaments to hang around a door! Visit her website at cooldogtrays.com and tell her NPDD sent you.
