Introducing the most deceptive precision gaffed deck ever made – SVENPAD® COCKTAIL CARDS. Not another common deck of magic playing cards – but a colorfully fun custom deck of cocktail recipe cards with professional drinks photos! There is NOTHING else on the magic market like the new SVENPAD® Cocktail Cards! They look & feel absolutely perfect.
Hand them out, have them read and overhand mixed in their hands! Force a classic drink in the most incredibly delicious way ever!
Give the cards to the spectator fearlessly – let them handle & name them out loud – and the spectator will never suspect the imperceptible secret. Cocktail Cards are the highest precision SVENPAD® product ever made – no exaggeration. Each individual card is painstakingly assembled by hand, giving the performer incredible freedom for a spectator to review/handle/hold & casually mix the cards with zero worries. Cocktail Cards are so deceptive that you will fool yourself when you first get them!
A gorgeous full color (glossy) deck of a wide array of what appears to be 52 delicious classic & modern cocktails with detailed genuine recipes! Cards exactly like this exist on Amazon or online for home bartenders and those looking to learn to make libations.
This is a powerhouse and fun effect for adult audiences. Audiences worldwide love cocktails! Cocktail Cards are a perfect mix of hard- hitting fun for performers doing corporate mingling/stage show, bars, nightclubs, restaurants, or weekend hobbyists.
The routines possible are limited only to your imagination – including the cleanest cocktails version of Max Maven’s “Pocket Nightmare” ever! Play them as mentalism (whereas they never saw the card they thought they saw) or as a magic revelation!
All the ingredients are here for mind-blowing cocktail revelations with multiple hits! Reveal flavors, smells, tastes, ingredients, even type of glass the drink is served in. Then reveal the drink itself in a cocktail shaker or using a can, or a card to impossible location (the card they thought they saw disappears from the deck). Reveal a REAL prepared drink in a cocktail shaker or behind the bar. Infinite possibilities! This is hard-hitting entertainment for mingling, cabaret, a stage performance or your favorite confabulation routine! Or combine the Cocktail Cards with your favorite impression device (where the spec thinks of the name of a friend), and now you have an even stronger personalized revelation!
A CARD FEELS LIKE A CARD. The gimmick is so incredibly well hidden, and the effect is literally self-working with zero sleight of hand. Any performer will be able to use these within 10 minutes of receiving them – so you can focus on a devastating routine rather the props.
No rough & smooth. No messy glues. Just an authentically stunning (self-working deck) that PACKS SMALL & PLAYS BIG.
Performers who own the powerful COCKTAIL CARDS include Bill Abbott, David Copperfield, Mat Franco, Justin Willman, The Clairvoyants, Mind 2 Mind, Ray Lum, Gregory Wilson, Chris Funk, John Archer, and so many more!

“When I took the cocktail cards out of the box, I knew immediately that this would become a modern classic! I handled the cards and could not detect the gimmick until I watched the video tutorial! That’s how good these are. I knew it was SVEN principal, and I even experimented with the cards but could not find the gimmick! The video tutorial covers both mentalism presentations as well as straight ahead power packed magic. The work that you put into this deck is simply amazing. Thank you for another great contribution to our magic community. Cocktail Cards are a WINNER!”–

“As always, Brett’s eye for quality and detail is second to none-the cards look fantastic and handle exactly as they should. A clever gimmick, a fun premise, and a knockout force.”–
Peter Nardi
“These cocktail decks are wonderful. A well designed, printed and assembled deck that I’m excited to work into my weekly shows at the Magic Hideaway here in St. Augustine Florida. It will be a classy, deceptive and unique way to produce a “thought-of” drink during our VIP cocktail reception. Thank you Brett!”–
Bill Abbott
“Just got this yesterday and I have to say also this time this product is a winner. Perfect for a force in a confabulation routine and visually very interesting.
10/10 well done Brett as always!”–

JHEFF’S JUDGMENT:
The SvenPad Cocktail Cards are a natural evolution of Brett Barry’s SvenPad line and are a solid addition. They allow the participant to handle the cards while the performer always knows the drink, and the deck is far more versatile than the basic peek-and-reveal use. The routines range from Pocket Nightmare and Hoy‑style revelations to Smart‑Ass presentations, and the production quality and instructional videos are excellent. The only real consideration is whether the cocktail theme suits you, but the SvenPad line has always been one of the very best for mentalists, and this is a solid, highly recommended addition to that family.
