Picture taking a bite of a lollipop and unexpectedly hearing music in your head. One of the most peculiar and amusing gadgets showcased at CES 2026 is the Lollipop Star, an edible lollipop that acts as a speaker. Indeed, it plays tunes while you savor it.
Developed by Lava Brands, the Lollipop Star is precisely what its name suggests: a sweet confection that incorporates bone-conduction technology, transforming snack time into a miniature personal concert.
How the Lollipop Star uses your jaw as a speaker

The enchantment occurs through bone conduction, as the Lollipop Star transmits vibrations through your teeth and jaw, which then travel straight to your inner ear. The device is embedded in the lollipop’s stick, featuring a small button at the bottom to switch it on. A gentle bite makes the music feel as if it’s playing inside your mind.
Each lollipop comes preloaded with a song that corresponds to a specific flavor and artist. For example, Ice Spice is flavored peach, Akon is blueberry, and Armani White is lime.

This entertaining and tasty gadget isn’t intended to replace your headphones, and Lava Brands isn’t pretending otherwise. The Lollipop Star is meant to provide a novelty experience to be enjoyed for a few moments rather than serving as a long-lasting speaker or headphone option.
Priced at $9 each, it is positioned as an impulse purchase, especially appealing to music enthusiasts or those who appreciate quirky technology. The Lollipop Star is anticipated to launch soon after CES and will be available on its website and at select retailers.
For additional CES curiosities and standout gadgets, Digital Trends has compiled its top tech highlights from CES 2026, while also examining more conventional audio equipment, such as JLab’s latest tiny ANC earbuds for those who prefer their music without sweetness.
