Encapsulate individual pop rocks in a thin, water soluble, multi colored, edible gel coating. Now suspend the candy in water, pour into an ice cube tray and flash freeze.
As the cubes melt, nebulous rainbow explosions stir your drink.This would work best in a clear liquid.-- 2 fries shy of a happy meal, Oct 02 2005 How pop rocks work http://science.hows...com/question114.htm [2 fries shy of a happy meal, Oct 03 2005] Talk about a race condition; that'd need to be some quick flash freeze operation.-- bristolz, Oct 02 2005 What is a Pop rock? Sorry I just checked - 'Space Dust' for me!-- gnomethang, Oct 02 2005 Do you really think that it would be a race to freeze [bristolz]? I figured that you could keep increasing the amount of coating to withstand water penetration until frozen.
Pop Rocks [link]-- 2 fries shy of a happy meal, Oct 03 2005 Spray your pop rocks with a supercooled water mist. It will freeze on impact.-- lurch, Oct 03 2005 Pop cubes and coke? Could be deadly ;)-- iamnafets, Oct 03 2005 random, halfbakery
