Silicone molds are often thought of when it comes time to make muffins or some other kind of baked treat in the oven. You just put the ingredients in the silicone mold tray, toss it in the oven, and watch the heat do the rest of the work. But silicone mold material can be shaped into a wide variety of different shapes and forms. Here are some of the other possible ways that you could use a silicone mold to make your life a bit easier.

Use a Silicone Mold Tray to Make Your Cooking Preparation Easier

If you like to cook, you are probably used to cutting or dicing up lots of different ingredients and then dumping them all into a frying pan or some other cooking device. If you have limited space in your kitchen, you might scramble to start preparing the next ingredient while the previous ingredient is already in the pan. Preparing multiple ingredients for every meal can also make a bit of a mess and lead to a long clean up time. 

A silicone mold tray can help you with these problems. Cut up or prepare all of your ingredients, measure them out, and place them in the mold before you actually turn on the stove. Then, when everything is prepared, you will have every single ingredient you need right in front of you. This will also keep all the ingredients organized into one spot and that could make clean up a bit easier when dinner is complete.

Make a Desk Organizer

There are a wide variety of small items that are often used during the day to day work in an office setting. You might need everything from thumbtacks to paper clips to rubber bands to make it through the workday. The more of these types of objects that you add to your desk though, the more cluttered it could end up looking. Get yourself a silicone mold with multiple spaces and you'll have a convenient place to put all of these super small but super important productivity items. Just keep the entire mold or tray on top of your desk and everything you need will be nearby when you need it.

Put Leftovers in the Freezer With Ease

If you want to save your dinner for tomorrow, you typically would seek out one or more containers to put everything into the fridge or freezer. Get a silicone mold with large enough openings, though, and you could put all of your leftovers or different treats into one tray. Silicone retains its shape in both hot and cold environments, so everything will be just as you left it, no matter how long the mold ends up in the freezer.
