I wish I could share a picture.

My ice cube tray made ice with thin spires of ice shooting up out of it?

What which craft is this?

I forget the specifics, but iirc it happens when an ice cube begins freezing around the edges while the top is still unfrozen. The forming ice “squeezes” the water left in the middle up and out of the top of the cube, which results in the spike.
