The Hot Chocolate Effect, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_chocolate_effect

Simple Double boiler made out of cheap pet dishes from petsmart, was also demoed for melting/dipping chocolate.

And our Semi Failed experiment to turn a candy-bar into a rocket. Instructable write up here http://www.instructables.com/id/Candybar-Milkyway-Rocket-Engine/, Ultimately it boils down to the fact we were able to make a working engine using a ground up Milky-Way bar.  But when we replicated it, we used a hersheys bar, and that didn’t work anywhere near as well!  But tonight we did some improvements and got a working test fire.  (This is how science works folks!) you can see the video here http://youtu.be/2vldXM1Inc0

Thank You everybody who made it out!

Also a huge Thank you to The Candy Lady  And to Senior Murphy for providing samples!
