If you'd like to use a candy experiment at your science fair:
- Your science fair project should be your own work. If you use a candy experiment idea, put your own spin on it by testing different candies and writing your own explanation.
- You must cite my website/book as your source.
- Let me know how it goes!
Caution:
- Don't drink the acid test experiments. Eating too much baking soda can make you sick.
- Grownups should supervise melting experiments. Melted candy can be much hotter than boiling water.
- Never heat a jawbreaker. Melted jawbreakers have been known to explode and cause serious burns (see Mythbusters Episode 20, 2004)
