SAFETY:

  • Protective clothing such as gloves and googles should be worn at all times when handling chemicals.

The “Shopping List”

  • Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate
  • Acetic Acid 3%
  • Food Colouring

STEP 1

Empty a 500gm of Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate pack into a bowl.

STEP 2

Add a small amount of water at a time until it starts to allow you to mould a shape. Please note: this should not be runny, it should just be able to hold together a shape without falling apart. If it does become too runny, add more Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate.

STEP 3

Add some of the dough you have created into the bottom piece of the plastic egg and place the surprise item on top.

STEP 4

Add more dough around to hide the item.

STEP 5

With the top piece of the plastic egg, fill this half with Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate.

STEP 6

Put both halves of the plastic egg filled with Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate together and gently tighten.

STEP 7

Freeze for 30 minutes to keep the shape.

STEP 8

After freezing, remove from the plastic egg container.

STEP 8

Drop into Acetic Acid 3% and watch as your egg reveals your surprise item!
