Many years ago I made the mistake of using the curved text settings in the Photoshop text tool. My curved text always looked bloated or stretched. The text never looked like it should.

While I use Cinema 4D r11.5 for most of my 3D modeling you can follow this tutorial in an version of Cinema 4D or use nearly any other 3D modeling program that supports arrays. If it doesn't support arrays, you can still manually make the ice cube bubbles (it will take a little more work though). This tutorial too about 15 minutes to create and anyone should be able to follow it without any problems.
