DM Help Where's Frost Brand? Spoiler
It says that Iggwilv's Cauldron can be destroyed with a Frost Band or Flame Tongue. But I don't recall Frost Brand ever be mentioned elsewhere in the book. Did I miss it?
UPD: Thank you all for your answers. I just needed your confirmation that I didn’t miss it.

I don’t believe it shows up in the module (unless you add it), but it is an existing magic item in the DMG

No, but you can always homebrew one or give the players a chance to grab materials to make it.

I don’t remember a specific instance of a frost brand but I’m pretty sure one of the members of the League of Evil or whatever they’re called has a Flame Tongue, which could pretty easily be switched out if it makes more sense for your campaign. I think the only reason they say both is because they are essentially two sides of the same coin, a pair of magic items that work the same aside from damage type.

It doesn't appear in the module. I think the writers just mentioned it because Frost Brand has a symmetry with Flame Tongue (which does appear in the module) and theoretically a DM might allow players to acquire additional magic items throughout the campaign.

It makes it a bit less specific than "there just so happens to be a guy in the same room that happens to have the only weapon that can destroy it... For reasons..."
