If you are looking for a gentle, slow-burning firework to gaze at... this isn't it.
War Path is an absolute powerhouse from Brothers Pyrotechnics, all about speed and aggression. You get a staggering 100 shots fired in just 30 seconds. That is more than three shots per second, creating a wall of noise and colour that simply doesn't let up.
It starts by hammering the sky with vertical shots of willows tipped with bright orange and green pearls, all backed up by a heavy crackle. Just when you think it's peaked, it shifts into a stunning fanned section, launching gigantic golden brocades with gold mine lifts that fill the entire width of your view.
The finale creates a chaotic mix of brocades, willows, and chrysanthemum crackle, leaving the sky shaking. A proper high-energy piece for those who like their displays loud and fast.
Galactic Top Tip: "Because this cake fires in a fanned formation (shooting to the left and right as well as straight up), you need to make sure you have plenty of space on either side of the firing site. Don't place it right next to a fence or a hedge—give it room to breathe so you don't clip any branches with those wide shots."
