Very nice "sucker" effect- they think they know how it's done- until the surprise ending! The Silk To Egg trick shows up well from stage, but can be performed close up as well.
Push a red silk into your hand- the red silk has changed to a white egg. "Reveal" the secret by showing that the egg is really a hollow plastic one with a hole in the side, a hole into which you pushed the red silk to make it vanish. Repeat the trick, but this time, after the red silk has been changed to the egg, tap the egg and break it open- the audience will gasp as the gooey insides of an egg come out! (And where did the plastic egg and red silk go??)!
-
Improved version can be done with or without a real egg. This comes with a plastic breakapart egg, plastic yolk, silk and instructions.

The demo shows an additional routine where you change a white silk into an egg.
You'll get:
You supply the ordinary liquid dish detergent (for making the goo), and also your own real egg (if you want to make a switch at the end of the trick).
History and Trivia
Fred Culpitt introduced the concept of this trick around 1915.
