Equipment

Large cake sheet pan
Wire coat hanger or 12-inch thin wire

Materials

  • 1 bottle regular bubble solution
  • 2 tablespoons glycerin
  • 2 tablespoons Dawn dishwashing liquid regular

Instructions

  1. Pour the regular bubble solution into a large cake sheet pan.
  2. Add the glycerin and Dawn dishwashing liquid.
  3. Gently combine the ingredients without creating too much foam.
  4. Dip a large wire loop into the solution and pull it through the air slowly to create giant bubbles.

Notes

Estimated yield assumes a 64-ounce bottle of regular bubble solution plus 4 tablespoons added liquid, for about 72 fluid ounces total.
Prep time is an estimate based on measuring, mixing, and shaping a simple wire wand.
# For best results, refrigerate overnight before using.
Store covered in the refrigerator and use within 1 to 2 weeks for best quality. This is a practical quality estimate, not a laboratory-tested shelf life.
