  1. There are at least two methods to use baking soda as an invisible ink. Mix equal parts water and baking soda.

    Use a cotton swab, toothpick, or paintbrush to write a message onto white paper, using the baking soda solution as 'ink'.

    Allow the ink to dry.

    One way to read the message is to hold the paper up to a heat source, such as a light bulb. The baking soda will cause the writing in the paper to turn brown.

    A second method to read the message is to paint over the paper with purple grape juice. The message will appear in a different color.

    Tips:

    If you are using the heating method, avoid igniting the paper - don't use a halogen bulb.

    Baking soda and grape juice react with each other in an acid-base reaction, producing a color change in the paper.

    The baking soda mixture can also be used more diluted, with one part baking soda to two parts water.

    Grape juice concentrate results in a more visible color change than regular grape juice.

    What You Need:

    Baking Soda

    Paper

    Water

    Light Bulb (heat source)

    Paintbrush or Swab

    Measuring Cup

    Purple Grape Juice (opt.)


  2. Write on a paper with lemon juice and dry it. Nothing will be visible. When you want to read it, dip in water and make it wet.You can read it like a water mark
