Visste du at...: Heksemel edition
Did you know that...
...Witch flour, known for its flammable properties, was used to simulate lightning and explosions in early theatrical performances. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, before modern special effects were in place, stage technicians used Lycopodium powder (Witch's Meal) to create dramatic flame effects. When the powder was blown through a flame, it exploded in a sudden and spectacular flash of light, wowing audiences and being used to mimic everything from magical rituals to thunderstorms on stage.
Witch hazel is a fun alternative to shooting stars and fireworks, or an impressive party trick. Surprise your guests with a flame show and be the coolest mom or dad at your child's birthday.
Although witch hazel used to be sold at the pharmacy, it has become increasingly difficult to obtain. If you don't want to take the time to harvest the spores yourself, have VitenWahl's helpers do the work for you, so you can impress your guests with a spectacular show - time and time again!
