Pop Rocks were developed in 1956 by General Foods research scientist William A. Mitchell introduced to the market in 1975 at .15 cents per pack. Then the Pop Rocks rage took off…and continues Today.

Tiny air pockets of carbonation (CO2) are released when melted in your mouth and has a mild “crackling” sensation and “popping” noise. The original flavors were Orange, Cherry and Grape.

Rim your 4th of July beverages with pop rocks and get a few raised eyebrows! Also, they can be sprinkled cup cakes.
