A screaming Jelly Baby

Jacob — Mon, 13 Sep 2010 10:12:34 +0000

A great science experiment, that shows the amount of energy in a single Jelly Baby.

…and the science behind it….

Heated potassium chlorate (an oxidising agent) combined with a Jelly Baby shows how much energy can be released from food using oxygen.

6KClO3(l) + C12H22O11(s) ? Explosive fun!

Half a tonne of Jelly Babies…

We are dispatching a lot of sweet jars at the moment and therefore are in need of a lot of Jelly Babies. We just had half a tonne delivered and thought we would take a photo for you.

The UK in sweets…

Artist Paul Baker turned the UK into Sweet Britain using more than 4,000 sweets in a painstaking model that even includes iconic British landmarks such as Stonehenge and Tower Bridge.

The two-metre-long creation, which took two months to make, also features edible miniatures of the Angel of the North, Silverstone racetrack, the Loch Ness monster, Hadrian’s Wall and Mount Snowdon.
