hey what’s up my friends happy Easter
today we’re going to be dipping
chocolate Easter eggs but we’re going to
be doing it with the king of random
twists now for this video I went down to
the grocery store and picked up a whole
bunch of these Cadbury cream eggs that
come out this time of year and the
purpose of this video is really to have
fun but there are three main experiments
I’d like to try with them today
the first experiment is freezing a
Cadbury Creme Egg and liquid nitrogen
and cutting it open to see what it looks
like the second experiment is taking one
of these black cat fireworks sticking it
down inside and lighting it off and for
the third experiment we’re going to take
another one of those firecracker cream
eggs and soak it in liquid nitrogen just
to see if it’ll work now I picked up the
classic cream eggs but I also noticed
they had a caramel variety as well so to
get started let’s crack these things
open just to see what the difference
even is between these two how these
things are sticky there we go
for the caramels not quite as sticky no
it’s nice so I got these things
unwrapped and check him out at first
glance they look nearly identical so for
our next step why don’t we take
something like a utility knife to cut
along the seam so we can pop these
things open and see how they compare
inside oh wow very cool and just cracker
it open
I mean like broke okay lovely job so
there’s the difference guys the first
one looks more like an egg you’ve got
the egg white with yellowish yolk in the
center and I’m not sure if that’s
actually like a yolk shape originally or
if it’s just globbed in there but this
other one surprises me I was expecting
this to be more of the egg white with
caramel yolk Center but you can see that
whole thing is filled entirely with
caramel and it’ll be interesting to see
what caramel does after it’s been
cryogenically frozen cool so now that we
know what these things are supposed to
look like on the inside let’s get to
dipping them in liquid nitrogen for this
experiment I’m just using a standard
styrofoam glass surprisingly styrofoam
is a very very good insulator much
better than plastic that would just
crack and spill at the nitrogen and even
better than glass that would boil quite
a bit of it off and I’m still able to
hold it without much difficulty alright
here we go for the first dip and for
this one I think we’re gonna keep the
wrapper on living on the edge alright
here we go
when I dunk you dunk we dunk and we have
contact look at all the heat it’s like
bubbling and foaming make sure we don’t
spill any over the edge there here we go
now I’m going to let that soak for about
a minute so has a chance to freeze all
the way through and when it comes out I
imagine it’s going to be rock-hard it’s
not going to be very easy to cut through
so in the meantime I’m going to go grab
a bench vise and a hacksaw so we can get
the leverage we need to chop this thing
open and see what it looks like inside
okay cool guys so we’re pushing up on
almost three minutes now hopefully
that’s enough time for this I’m going to
take this out and look as soon as it
comes out it looks completely clean no
problem but instantly you can see it
starts frosting over and I can actually
hear the chocolate cracking a little bit
as well so before this thing warms up
too much let’s get over to bench vise
and chop it open with our hacksaw all
right going into the bench vise now I’m
going to try and line this up so it goes
along the seam the best we can luckily
hasn’t started brush buddy my fingers
too much
oh shoot dang it this is harder than I
thought
yeah okay so maybe we should just break
these things open I’m so tempted to put
that in my mouth right now I don’t know
if it should so update guys bench vise
is a little bit too much pressure for
this thing so for this one we’re going
with the good old hammer and chisel cool
set that guy right there
I’ll go mini and Wow well I think either
way it looks like these things just
crumble but you can get a pretty good
visual on what’s inside there I was
hoping that was actually like a yellow
egg yolk inside there but you can see it
really is just dispersed throughout the
white almost like it was just injected
and smeared around so I’m a little bit
disappointed in the findings guys but I
can’t say I’m surprised I was hoping we
find a little yellow packet as like one
round ball on the inside oh we still got
our caramel eggs let’s go ahead and
crack that open just for fun doesn’t
seem like the liquid nitrogen has
affected the foil at all it peels right
off without problem oh wow if you look
at the chocolate you can see it’s made
some interesting patterns you can see
maybe that’s the cocoa butter it’s kind
of pushed out to the surface of course
this frosting over pretty quick but you
can see little cracks on the chocolate
as well it’s giving it kind of an ornate
look now just for fun let’s go ahead and
crush this in the bench vise I’m just
going to take this nice and slow listen
closely oh that didn’t take anything at
all easy
[Music]
looks like there was an air bubble in
here is very smooth and shiny and down
here almost resembles like a geode like
little crystals a little bit of little
chunk of frozen caramel there how does
it taste like sticking to my tongue a
little bit we want to leave that on too
long very crunchy the chocolate doesn’t
taste as good it tastes with a little
more waxy than normal how bizarre that
was kind of fun let’s move on to the
experiment I’m more looking forward to
that is a firecracker in a Cadbury Creme
Egg now this here is a simple strand of
black cat firecrackers these are the
ones that you just light off and they
all go off at once in series but I’m
going to extract one of these
individually and drill a small hole in
the top of the egg and push it down
inside then light it off to see how it
reacts let’s do that next yeah let the
yolk on that one sticky bomb so here’s
what we got guys we’ve got a chocolate
cream egg with a firecracker stuck down
inside we’re going to stick this down
this little acrylic base that I made
light it off and run away we’ve got
about one second to get some good
distance let’s go oh look at that what
look at the inside of that egg it’s like
thoroughly blended the white and the
orange together to make a new mix and I
think has mixed it with some black
powder because that’s got kind of a
burnt orange look to it now there’s the
cardboard casing still in there kind of
blasted out one side didn’t it okay that
was pretty cool let’s do that again
whoa that was fast so blasted out the
top and then we ended up face down and
see all the cardboard in there I want to
went off a lot quicker than I was
expecting so I was actually kind of fun
I ran probably a lot further away than I
needed to but it worked it comes out
pretty gooey and half this thing blew
off so I’m really interested to see now
what difference it will make if this is
frozen solid how much more dangerous is
that going to be with shards of frozen
chocolate shooting out in every
direction can’t wait to find out who got
me Cheers
I think for this experiment I’m going to
try the caramel variety so quick update
guys I giving this thing about two and a
half minutes to soak so it should be
sufficiently firm for our demonstration
the question of my mind though is will
black powder even ignite at such low
temperatures or did we just waste our
time
let’s go light it off and find out
alright here we go
nitrogen egg grenade take one it stopped
what the heck that’s kind of
disappointing the fuse burned out but
the Firecracker didn’t go off what the
heck is that going I can’t tell if
that’s the vapor from the nitrogen or if
that’s the smoke from the fees the fees
is burned away on these but the
cartridge is still inside so just for
kicks let’s go ahead and crack these
things open and see what it looks like
there we are
there’s our firecracker oh wait
that’s weird let’s do a cracked off the
bottom there it’s still look edible
crunchy yep there’s our cartridge
completely unscathed
alright so interesting two times we let
these things often two times the fuse
burned down but then stopped without any
kind of ignition so I’m going to take
one of these firecrackers here soak it
in liquid nitrogen by itself and see if
we can get it to go off if it doesn’t
then I think our idea of nitrogen a
grenades is probably a dud see what
happens hot versus cold which is going
to win look at that okay so these things
won’t blow up alright we’re gonna go a
little bit gutsy here see if we can do
them all at the same time
wow they worked what the heck okay I
wasn’t expecting those I’d actually go
off and the fact that they did makes me
wonder if we shouldn’t try our last
three and see if we can have any success
with those why aren’t those working
those didn’t what the heck all right
let’s make the magic happen it worked oh
thank goodness it worked what was the
difference that’s so interesting look at
this acrylic base is still attached
we’ve got the bottom of the egg frozen
to it and then you’ve just got this half
stand of firecracker stuck here in the
middle that looks crazy that’s gonna be
cool to see in this slow mo oh gosh yeah
that was a lot better than the first one
the combustion was a lot more complete
and the explosion took out most of the
egg it wasn’t just like some of it
flopped over sideways I mean that was a
direct hit and shattered in every
different direction that was very
satisfying really glad that worked the
question is if we can get it to do it
again please work please work please
work
whoa the fuse burned down incredibly
fast okay I’m taking a propane torch to
it
now if this doesn’t go off that’s gonna
be molten chocolate spewing everywhere
[Music]
well I’m calling that a mostly fail yeah
oh there goes ha ha ha took long enough
so this is kind of interesting let’s
stop and recap some of the things that
we did here today
we start off by opening some Cadbury
cream eggs to see what they look like
when they are gooey on the inside then
we tried freezing them in liquid
nitrogen to see if we could get them to
hold their shape before they crack them
open but it turns out there isn’t
actually a yolk inside them after all
it’s just randomly sprayed together next
we tried sticking a fire cracker down
inside one of the cream eggs which was
very satisfying but most of the energy
came out of the top so we tried freezing
our cream egg grenades and liquid
nitrogen to see if that had create a
more dramatic effect we found two things
apparently the fuses to the firecrackers
that come off the strips aren’t very
reliable sometimes they work and
sometimes they don’t when they do work
the results are fantastic it worked and
when they don’t it’s a little
discouraging but I still have a strip
full of firecrackers and two more frozen
eggs so for one grand finale
let’s roll them all up together and
light them all off that’s awesome well
that’s it for this set of experiments
guys Happy Easter and I’ll see you in
the next video talk to you then oh and
our eggs still survived
