I have known people to freeze in ice cubes.  I know I froze my homemade
baby food this way. I would simply spoon in the food, flatten it out
with a knife, then freeze for 2 or so hours, until hard.  Then I'd pop
them out and put them in dated ziplock freezer bags.  I think milk would
be ok this way too, as long as after it was frozen they would put it in
a sealed dated container.

The mothers I am helping are mostly low income and cannot afford the milk "bags" nor can they afford to buy more bottles to keep in the freezer. Since they have to freeze small portions for single servings(babies are all less than 2 months old) Would freezing breastmilk in ice cube trays acceptable? If not, what would you recommend?
