Sounds great–thanks for sharing. Did you know that Kong made a kong-shapped “ice cube” tray so you can freeze the stuffing seperately to make in large batches and store frozen in bag for indivdual use later. It works great for us! So handy not to have to tie up the kong waiting for it to freeze and easier for her to chew unfrozen Kong , but still time consuming because the contents are frozen solid

  I have seen those. It might be worth trying sometime but I don’t find filling and freezing them to be a hassle. I think the advantage though would be having more ready to go.
