Description
Basil Cool Lick Silicone Ice Cream Freeze and Play Toy for Dogs (Orange)
Summer sorted. Boredom sorted. Teething sorted. One toy.
The Basil Cool Lick silicone ice cream toy is a freeze-and-play lick toy for dogs shaped like an ice cream popsicle — fill the textured surface with your dog’s favourite treat, freeze it, and hand it over. The non-toxic gel core freezes solid and stays cool for up to 45 minutes, turning a normal lick toy into a slow, cooling treat dispenser that keeps dogs engaged, occupied, and comfortable in the heat.
It is three things at once: a lick toy for mental enrichment, a teething toy for the chew-and-mouth phase of puppyhood, and a summer cooling activity for the sweltering Indian months where your dog needs something cold and interesting to do indoors. Made from food-grade, BPA-free silicone throughout — the outer lick surface, the internal gel, and the stick handle are all non-toxic. Durable enough for regular freezing and use, and dishwasher safe for easy cleaning between sessions.

What Makes the Basil Cool Lick Freeze Toy Worth Having?
Here is what each design element does in practice:
-
Ice cream popsicle shape — the shape is not just for looks. It gives your dog something to hold between their paws or prop against the floor while they lick, making independent engagement easier. The stick handle also gives you a clean surface to hold while handing it over without getting treat residue on your hands
-
Textured lick surface — the ridges and grooves on the ice cream scoop surface slow down licking and extend the time your dog spends working on the toy. A smooth surface empties in minutes. The textured surface on the Cool Lick keeps dogs engaged significantly longer, which matters for the mental enrichment function of the toy
-
Non-toxic freezable gel core — the inner core material freezes uniformly and holds the cold for up to 45 minutes after removal from the freezer. This is the element that makes the toy genuinely cooling rather than just a lick toy that happens to be kept cold. The gel is non-toxic and sealed inside the silicone — dogs cannot access or ingest it
-
Food-grade BPA-free silicone — silicone at food-grade specification is safe for sustained contact with food, saliva, and freezing temperatures without leaching any compounds. BPA-free means none of the hormone-disrupting compounds found in lower-grade plastics. Relevant for a toy that spends extended time in contact with your dog’s mouth and the treats they eat
-
Durable and dishwasher safe — silicone toys that cannot be properly cleaned between uses accumulate bacteria in the grooves. The Cool Lick is dishwasher safe — load it in after every session, run a cycle, and it is clean and ready to refreeze
What Can You Fill the Cool Lick Toy With?
The textured surface holds soft and semi-liquid fillings best. Here are the most practical options:
-
Plain curd (yoghurt) — the most popular filling for Indian dog parents. Low-fat, plain, unsweetened curd is safe for most dogs and freezes beautifully on the textured surface
-
Peanut butter — use only xylitol-free, unsalted peanut butter. Peanut butter freezes to a thick, slow-release consistency that keeps dogs working the toy for longer than curd
-
Wet dog food or food toppers — spread a layer of your dog’s regular wet food across the surface before freezing for a meal-based enrichment activity
-
Banana and curd blend — mashed banana mixed with curd is a popular frozen treat combination for dogs that is safe, nutritious, and palatable
-
Plain boiled chicken paste — blended boiled chicken thinned with a small amount of water spreads and freezes well for high-value enrichment sessions
⚠️ Filling tips:
-
Apply filling in thin layers before freezing for best results — thick single layers take longer to freeze evenly and may slide off
-
Freeze for a minimum of 2 hours before giving to your dog — partial freezing means the filling comes off too quickly
-
Supervise your dog for the first session to ensure they are engaging with the toy correctly and not attempting to bite through the silicone aggressively
Is the Cool Lick Toy Safe for Puppies?
Yes — the food-grade, BPA-free silicone is safe for teething puppies. The texture and hardness of silicone provides appropriate chew resistance for the teething phase — firm enough to provide gum relief, soft enough not to damage emerging teeth. Filled and frozen, it also provides a numbing cooling effect on inflamed gums that is one of the most effective home remedies for teething discomfort.
Supervise all chew and lick sessions for puppies under 4 months who may be more determined to bite through rather than lick. If your puppy is a very aggressive chewer and begins to break the surface, replace the toy.
How Do You Use and Clean the Cool Lick Toy?
Using:
-
Spread your chosen filling across the textured surface — working it into the grooves for longer engagement
-
Place in the freezer for a minimum of 2 hours
-
Remove from the freezer and give to your dog immediately — the gel core stays cold for up to 45 minutes
-
Supervise for the first few sessions
Cleaning:
-
Rinse off any remaining filling under running water
-
Place in the dishwasher on a normal cycle — the silicone is fully dishwasher safe
-
If hand washing, use a soft brush to clean the textured grooves where filling residue accumulates
-
Allow to dry fully before refilling and refreezing

FAQs
What is the Basil Cool Lick ice cream toy used for?
The Basil Cool Lick is a freeze-and-play silicone lick toy shaped like an ice cream popsicle. Fill the textured surface with curd, peanut butter, wet food, or other dog-safe treats, freeze for 2 hours, and give to your dog. The non-toxic gel core stays cool for up to 45 minutes. It works as a cooling summer toy, a mental enrichment activity, and a teething toy for puppies.
How do you freeze and use the Basil Cool Lick toy?
Spread your chosen filling across the textured surface, working it into the grooves. Freeze for a minimum of 2 hours until solid. Remove and give to your dog immediately — the gel core keeps the toy cool for up to 45 minutes. Thin layers of filling freeze more evenly than thick single layers and give your dog longer engagement. Dishwasher safe — clean after every session before refreezing.
Is the Basil Cool Lick toy safe for teething puppies?
Yes — the food-grade, BPA-free silicone is safe for teething puppies. The texture provides appropriate gum relief during the teething phase, and frozen filling provides a numbing cooling effect on inflamed gums. Supervise puppies under 4 months during use. If your puppy is an aggressive chewer who attempts to bite through rather than lick the toy, monitor closely and replace if the silicone surface shows damage.
What can I put in the Basil Cool Lick toy?
Plain unsweetened curd, xylitol-free peanut butter, wet dog food, mashed banana mixed with curd, or blended boiled chicken paste all work well. Spread the filling into the grooves before freezing for the longest engagement. Avoid any fillings containing xylitol, onion, garlic, grapes, or chocolate — all of which are toxic to dogs. When in doubt about a filling ingredient, check with your vet before use.
What is the difference between the Basil Cool Lick toy and a LickiMat?
The Cool Lick is a shaped freeze toy — a popsicle your dog holds or props while licking, with an internal gel core that stays cold for 45 minutes. LickiMats are flat mats spread with filling — your dog licks from a stationary surface on the floor. The Cool Lick is better for solo active play and cooling in summer. LickiMats are better for calm stationary enrichment, bath time distraction, or grooming sessions where keeping your dog in one spot is the priority.
