The Effect
You show a tin of blue mints, hand one out to the spectator, which they can eat. You take one yourself, then you show that yours has changed colour. You then breath on the closed tin of mints, give it a shake and offer it to them to open. All the mints have changed colour! The tin and mints are completely examinable.

Cost
£32.99 (Best price)


Difficulty
(1=easy to do, 2=No sleights, but not so easy, 3=Some sleights used,
4=Advanced sleights used, 5=Suitable for experienced magicians only)

2 (Pretty easy with some practise.)


Review
Great little effect, simple ingenious method. Comes with DVD which is easy to follow. It's neatly packed into a single tin, although a few extra mints in a separate container or bag are required to reset the trick. A PK ring is recommended for practical use. I found I had to make a slight modification (a bit of brown paper) to the gimmick due to excessive stickness.

Can't easily be reset in front of spectators.

Overall
9 out of 10

i must say all the stuff put out from this guy is pure gold!
with alittle work you can make the open tin of mint change to anything you want while the spectator is holding it!
and also do look into sugar rush its got my vote for best magic effect ever!
and it has replaced almost all my gaffed coin routines!
