POP ROCKS\u00ae are small pieces of hard candy that have been gasified with carbon dioxide under super-atmospheric pressure <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pop-rocks.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">[1]<\/a>.  When these sugar bits become wet, the gas is released creating popping, cracking and fizzing sounds and tingling sensations within your mouth. Normally the moisture is provided inside your mouth for a private explosion, but we decided to begin the explosion sounds on a tray in front of guests for everyone to enjoy.<\/p> \r\n<p>We decided to add them to three items that are already on most <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eatbydate.com\/picnic-foods\/\">picnic menus<\/a>: watermelon, cupcakes and lemonade. Although all three are festive, since watermelon is mainly water it kept those little candies popping the loudest and longest and was therefore voted the favorite. Following are instructions to add a little sizzle to a gathering. <\/p>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"cody-item-pic-container cntrtxt\">\n\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eatbydate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pop-watermelon1.jpg\" alt=\"pop rock watermelon\" height=\"350px\" width=\"325px\" \/><\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"row margin-topbot-15\">\n<!-- EBD Responsive Top -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:block\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-8222024904512683\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"6874518955\"\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"row margin-topbot-15 cody-item-pic\">\n\t\t<div class=\"fusion-column content-box-column content-box-column-1 boxed-cody-white boxed-botbor-green cody-dropshadow\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"col content-wrapper cody-blog-post-paragraphs\"><h1 class=\"title cntrtxt margin-bottom-15\"><strong>Fireworks in Your Mouth<\/strong><\/h1>\r\n\r\n<p>All of these are simple to make, the important part is that you make them right before serving so that the pieces of candy will crackle and pop when tasted.

Cut a chilled watermelon into triangles and press one edge of each slice against the pop rocks.  Work quickly and get them to the table as soon as possible, their eat by date is explained below the picture. <\/p> \r\n<div class=\"cody-item-pic-container cntrtxt\">\n\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eatbydate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pop-watermelon.jpg\" alt=\"\" height=\"600px\" width=\"800px\" \/><\/div><br>\r\n<p>These POP ROCKS\u00ae will snap, crackle and pop for at least 10 minutes with continued intermittent popping for about 5 more minutes. They also continue to pop once in the mouth. Set out a whole tray of these and enjoy the concert for a few minutes, but be sure to eat them before the music is over. Once the noise is gone, there&#8217;s just a sweetness at the edge of the melon (that we did not enjoy). <\/p>\r\n<p>We picked up some orange and green candies that were half price because they were called &#8220;pumpkin patch&#8221;. Since these candies are not cheap, we took a gamble on this package. We then realized that, despite the name, these candies were actually orange and apple flavored rocks. Turns out that these flavors and colors were quite complementary and the perfect choice for our watermelon slices. <\/p><br>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"row margin-topbot-15\">\n<!-- EBD Responsive 2nd -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:block\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-8222024904512683\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"9132994553\"\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"row margin-topbot-15\">\n\t\t<div class=\"fusion-column content-box-column content-box-column-1 boxed-cody-white boxed-botbor-green cody-dropshadow\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"col content-wrapper cody-blog-post-paragraphs\"><h1 class=\"title cntrtxt margin-bottom-15\"><strong>Fireworks in Your Mouth<\/strong><\/h1>\r\n<h2 class=\"title cntrtxt margin-bottom-15 cody-green-heading\"><strong>Make Firework Cupcakes<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n<p>We tried using the candy inside cupcakes.

To make drinks sizzle, simply moisten the rim of the glass by running a wet finger or towel around the edge and then dipping the rim into a small plate of the candies. Fill the glass with lemonade and things will begin to sizzle. Don&#8217;t worry if some rocks fall into the glass as that will create the sounds while you serve the drinks.
