6 Card Repeat by Ari Phillips and Mona Kowalczyk

Effect

The Sweet Repeat trick is a playful version of the classic 6 Card Repeat, using colorful packets of Fizz Wiz popping candy instead of playing cards. The magician shows six candy packets and repeatedly removes them—by pocketing, dropping, or even giving them away—yet somehow always ends up with all six back in hand. The effect is visual, interactive, and leaves audiences baffled as the candy keeps reappearing.
