Favorite 200g Cake (Value)

[Bitzan]

Friends,
I need to supplement this year's show with some 200g cakes both to add to the overall show and to reduce cost versus using all 500g cakes. My purchases are mostly made at American Wholesale Fireworks as I have found them to be great people and they are 45 minutes from my house :)!

So looking at Brothers, Winda, Racoon, T-Sky, Boom Wow, Sunwing, Sky Bacon, Krypton, what are some of your favorites?

Thanks in advance for the help

I did a case of We Are Family by BoomWow and I enjoyed the assortment you get out of it, it’s 4 sets of 3 different cakes. I made 3 piece holders for them and fired them. Good variety and nice breaks. I have heard BumpBear by Winda is a great deal. 24 in a case I think I saw at a very reasonable price.

Found a video and they look great. Not currently in stock at AWF but I will keep checking. Thanks for the input!

I used 3 of these in my 2020 4th show. It's a nice multi-effect cake. Could be difficult to fit it in some shows, especially if you script to music. You can see them at around 6:05 in the video below:

That whole show is sweet - nice job timing all the crackle with the "diamonds" in the music.

Thank you! Not currently in stock at AWF but will be keeping my eyes open.

Thanks. The crackle was a little off in other spots but close enough considering the cakes I was using. Hard to get timing perfect using multi-effect cakes.

I shot smack down by tsky other year ago and was a fan. I used thats what she said in my laborday show shot them 2 at a time and started another set part way through they r the 1st shells in show. Pretty basic silver strobe but breaks were full and thats what i look for in a 200g. I dont know if they r still in but i shot a cpl of the nishiki 200g dominator in the 1.4 pro and really liked them shot 2 of those with the comets at 3:04 id guess most of those 200g will b nice https://youtu.be/83MAyjLVHfU

my favorite has been Bump Bear for a while. I prefer single effect cakes en masse and these are great for that. Use 90 of them to start my finale every year.

Raccoon strobing willow,
Under $100 case, great low to mid height.
I use 2 cases in all my shows.
