How do poprocks work?!?!
Answers: Oh their fabulous. I love that popping sensation :]]]
The candy is made by mixing its ingredients and heating them until they melt, then exposing the mixture to pressurized carbon dioxide gas (about 600 pounds per square inch) and allowing it to cool. The process causes tiny high pressure bubbles to be trapped inside the candy.[1] When placed in the mouth, coming into contact with saliva, the candy breaks and melts, releasing the carbon dioxide from the tiny 60 atm bubbles, resulting in a popping and sizzling sound and leaving a slight tingling sensation. The bubbles in the candy pieces can be viewed when aided by a magnifying glass.
In 2006, Dr. Marvin Rudolph, who led the group assigned to bring Pop Rocks out of the laboratory and into the manufacturing plant, wrote the definitive history on Pop Rocks development. The book, titled, "Pop Rocks: The Inside Story of America's Revolutionary Candy, " draws on interviews with food technologists, engineers, marketing managers, and members of Bill Mitchell's family, along with the author's direct experience, to tell the complete story.
In recent years, a Pop Rocks brand chewing gum has been introduced.
