That's how magicians do the big puffs of flames in their acts.
They have a little bladder and tube (think mini turkey baster) filled
with powder (usually, corn starch).


Classically it's Lycopodium, but that's hard to get.


My magician buddy mentioned the "real" stuff and that sounds familiar.
He also said that it was difficult to get or just too expensive, so most
"non-pros" use the starch.
I'll never remember that word. :-)
