This is a matter of melting and freezing. When you touch the tray, the warmth from your finger quickly melts a bit of a ice and creates a thin layer of water between the tray and your finger. Since the tray is so cold, it quickly freezes that thing layer of water forming an icy bond between your finger and the tray.

Reason why your finger sticks to a metal ice tray just taken from refrigirator?
Ya... have you noticed that if you touch a plastic tray this does not happen. They are both the same temperature but because metal is a good conductor of heat when you touch the metal tray it removes heat from your skin so fast that it actually creates a very thin film of ice between the surface of the tray and the moisture in your skin. This acts like a cement until it either thaws or you use enough force to break the bond
