The shell comprises an outer wall and an inner wall, which define an internal space. The internal space is substantially occupied by a substance having a latent heat of fusion that is equal to or greater than that of water. The shell can be positioned in a freezer to substantially fuse the substance. The shell is one of a plurality of shells, each having a respective shape and a respective size, thereby providing shells of a variety of shapes and sizes.
