Firework Star

A firework star is a crafting ingredient used to create explosive firework rockets, which deal damage based on the number of stars added. Firework stars can be crafted using various combinations of dyes and other items, which affect the appearance, colors and visual effects of the resulting explosions.

In Survival mode, firework stars are obtainable only through crafting. In Creative mode, the generic version‌[Java Edition only] or all 16 color variants‌[Bedrock Edition only] can be found in the Creative inventory.

Additionally, in Bedrock Edition and Minecraft Education only, a single unit of bone meal, lapis lazuli, cocoa beans, or ink sacs can be used to set the base color of a firework star. They cannot be mixed with any other ingredient (whether color or effect ingredients), nor used to add a "fade to color" effect.
