500 Gram Fireworks Cakes

A cake is a block of tubes fused together. You light one fuse and the tubes fire one after another, so a single cake can carry a whole segment of your show. "500 gram" is the top size class for consumer cakes. The industry standard that federal shipping rules use to classify consumer fireworks, APA 87-1, normally caps a multiple-tube device at 200 grams of total pyrotechnic composition. It allows up to 500 grams when the tubes are securely attached to a base and spaced at least half an inch apart. That extra composition is why these cakes are the backbone of most backyard finales.

Plan on two or three 500 gram cakes for the middle of a show and save your biggest one for last. Light them on a flat, hard surface, one at a time, and step well back. Never lean over a cake after lighting it.

These cakes suit buyers who want a big show without handling a lot of separate items. Check your city and county rules before you buy, since most cities ban fireworks inside city limits.
