Exploding Cherries by Brothers Pyrotechnics

Bringing Back a Cult Classic

Exploding Cherries was made to replace one of the most popular fireworks of all time, Cheeky Cherries by Fireworks International (alas, a company of no more). It did a pretty good job of that, and we still get asked for it to this day, so we thought we’d bring it back. For those unfamiliar with the cherry, it’s a red star to crackle effect, and there are 16 shots of it in this cake.

Running for 20 seconds with a 2/5 noise rating, from compact 18mm tubes, this is a nostalgic favourite that’s earned its place back in the range.

Why You’ll Love It

• The spiritual successor to the cult-favourite Cheeky Cherries
• A simple, satisfying red star to crackle effect repeated across all 16 shots
• A low 2/5 noise rating, ideal for family-friendly displays
• A genuinely requested returning favourite, not a new unknown

Perfect For

• Garden firework displays wanting a nostalgic, proven effect
• Bonfire Night and New Year’s Eve displays
• Anyone who remembers Cheeky Cherries and wants it back
• Standard gardens, thanks to the 8-metre safety distance
