Specially designed for filling balloons, our balloon confetti adds a sparkling, professional finish to any display. The metallic circles measure 2 cm in diameter; large enough to create eye-catching colour and movement inside clear latex balloons, yet small enough to load easily and distribute evenly. Available in a range of metallic colours, they can be matched to almost any party theme, wedding palette or brand colours.
Once inside the balloon and inflated (with air or a mix of air and helium), a quick rub against fabric creates static that helps the confetti cling to the sides, producing that sought-after “confetti floating in mid-air” look. They work equally well for decorative floating balloons, photo-backdrop installations, or surprise-reveal balloons that burst to release a shower of colour.
Supplied in convenient ½ kg bags, balloon confetti can be ordered in any quantity you need, no minimum order applies. Quantity discounts and free mainland UK delivery on orders over £100 make it straightforward to stock up for a single celebration or multiple events. Custom colour options are also available if you need something more specific for your theme.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is balloon confetti and how is it different from regular confetti?
Balloon confetti consists of 2 cm metallic circles specifically sized and finished for use inside clear balloons. Regular confetti is typically larger or differently shaped for throwing or cannon use; balloon confetti is optimised so it loads easily, spreads well and creates a sparkling effect when the balloon is inflated.
How do I get the confetti to stick to the sides of the balloon?
After filling and inflating the balloon, gently rub it against a piece of fabric (such as a wool scarf or clothing). The static electricity generated helps the metallic circles cling to the inner surface, giving an even, floating appearance rather than a pile at the bottom.
Can balloon confetti be used with helium?
Yes. Many people use a combination of a little air followed by helium so the balloon still floats while the confetti is distributed. Pure helium also works, though the added weight of the confetti may slightly reduce float time compared with an empty balloon.
What quantities and colours are available?
Balloon confetti is sold in handy ½ kg bags with no minimum order. A range of metallic colours is stocked to suit most themes, and custom fills or colour mixes can be arranged if you need something more specific. Quantity discounts and free mainland UK delivery on orders over £100 apply.
