Bite down on a jawbreaker and you’ll see how the candy got its name. But haven’t you always wondered what the sweet treat looks like on the inside?

Well, wonder no more. The people over at Let’s Melt This melted a giant jawbreaker using a blowtorch, and the result is sweetly mesmerizing, as we see all the colors under that spotted exterior. In some ways, it feels like looking at a cross-section of a planet. 

The next time you’re sucking on one of these treats, just remember the beauty on the inside.
