""I tested out a Lollipop Star at Pepcom at CES, and it did work -- the rep at the booth guided us to move the lollipop to the back of our mouths and bite down a bit with our molars to get the music started. It was rather quiet, even with earplugs in, but you could indeed hear the song. The booth was very crowded all night -- there was clearly a lot of curiosity and interest.""
""\"Experience music you can taste\" with Lollipop Star from Lava Tech, a lollipop that uses bone conduction technology to play songs from your mouth to your inner ear, debuting at CES 2026. It's a novelty experience, and a fun one -- suck on the lollipop and you'll hear a song directly in your ears.""
""At launch, you can choose from three flavors and artists: Blue Paradise featuring Akon's \"Beautiful Day,\" White Peach and Strawberry featuring Ice Spice's \"Munch, Baddie Baddie, Big Guy,\" and Lime Sea Salt featuring Armani White's \"Mount Pleasant.\" They are single-use, which raises some sustainability concerns. You'll be able to buy these lollipops for $8.99 on Lollipop Star's website.""
Lollipop Star is a single-use confection that delivers music via bone conduction, transmitting sound from the mouth to the inner ear. The product debuted at CES 2026 and offers a novelty listening experience where sucking and positioning the lollipop against the back of the mouth and lightly biting the molars initiates playback. Audio output is relatively quiet, even with earplugs, yet audible. Launch varieties pair flavors with specific artists and songs: Blue Paradise with Akon, White Peach and Strawberry with Ice Spice, and Lime Sea Salt with Armani White. The lollipops are priced at $8.99 each and raise sustainability concerns due to single-use design.
