Here is everything you need to know about the new taba squishy trend! Taba means "bundle" or "bunch" in japanese and is now used to describe these super soft squishies that come in in a "bundle" of fake packaging. You squish it through the plastic which is surprisingly satisfying. Tabas originated in China, where silicone factories have started producing a new polymer that is softer than Shore 00. This is sometimes confusingly referred to as "glue" on social media clips however it's due to a mistranslation. In Chinese, "jiao" (glue) can also be used to describe any thick, sticky liquid. It's essentially the Chinese term for "squishy gel". Tabas are always made from silicone and have nothing to do with glue.
Some tabas are so sticky that they have to be flocked. When buying flocking powder, try to avoid ones that are marketed as fake snow. These are usually quite coarse and won't give you the best velvety, fuzzy texture. Make sure you're wearing an N95/FF2 mask (or higher) when using flocking powder because the particles get everywhere and should not be inhaled. Some people work inside a closed box with two holes cut out for your hands.

The sophie and toffee squishy gels, from my experience, do tend to stick more to silicone and from what I saw even sophie and toffee adds a separation layer in their newest video for the silicone squishy box. The reason the paws worked is likely because the molds are rubber based and not silicone. Always love seeing you experimenting with these kinds of things.
I’m so glad I came across your channel after so long. I used to watch you a lot as a child and I just wanted to say that I love the way you explain the science of toys and crafts❤❤
Thank you, I'm so happy to hear that! I love hearing from people who have been with the channel from the very beginning 🥰
I😊
I am a kid and I love these videos
I have a shop for my handmade taba squishies. Also I’m so glad you showed the difference between the cheap Temu ones from the real handmade ones ahhh finally
Yay and good luck with your store! I feel that taba is going to become the next slime trend where the best products come from indie sellers. I somehow don't see any commercial companies making good taba squishies. Most are probably going to cut corners and try to sell giant mochis in plastic bags with cheap fillers inside.
What country is your shop in
The impulsive thoughts to bite into those silicone squishes... especially the milky ones they look like those cheesecakes in a fancy shape at the asian market
Yes!! Some of the tabas I saw online look so forbiddenly delicious 😂
rediscovering your channel as an older teen is so nostalgic 😭❤
please be careful ordering from temu.. its similar to wish and banggood which have sellers who not only underpay employees and have unsafe work environments, but often employ children as well...
I know it really bad ( boost this comment guys)
Edit: not mines but the original comment!
We need more ppl to see this
edit: guys we really need to make this top comment
srsly!! its as bad or even worse than shein
Is there any proof or just suspicion?
Do you have sources for this? Especially the child labor part.
to miriam and clem, from what ive gathered: "theres an extremely high risk that temus supply chains are contaminated with forced labor" The House Select Committee on the Cinese Community party said in the report. "temu does not have any system to ensure compliance ith UFLPA"
-bbc site
TEMU under US investiagtion aswell (which might say alot)
I'm a bit confused, you don't take these squishes out of the packaging right?
If u don't wanna ruin it, then yes dont get it out of the packaging
since the word refers to a cluster of textures, the point seems to be to keep it in the package to squish them all. especially if they’re supposed to be super soft
yep! the packaging is part of the texture, so it's awesome if you're someone (like me) who loves crinkly things.
Yep, I don't think you are supposed to take them out. It's surprisingly satisfying though...a lot more ASMR-y compared to regular squishies.
You do take them out if you want
You need to put vaseline inside of the mold before pouring the silicone! Also demolding in water helps.
You are always so on top of trends! Thank you for making these experiments so honestly!
this is fascinating! the way eva bags sound combined with all those different textures makes me want one of these.
That hello kitty be working out hard😂
I love how much I learn and enjoy these videos like- I'm getting some tabba squishies now that you showed me how adorable they are
I literally am obsessed with 捏捏 recently so happy to see you covering this!!!! Hope to see more of this content in the future ~
Does the part A and part B of the silicone not have a different density? So measuring by weight leads to not having 1:1 ratio unless you did recalculate it? I'm just curious because I learned with silicone and resin you should measure by volume
That's interesting! I never thought about that and I've only seen people measure them by weight as well. The two liquids do look very similar though in terms of density. Part B is usually the hardener but bizarrely, in the Chinese videos, Part A seems to be the hardener.
I've been waiting for you to make a video about this!!! I'm beyond happy, thank youu!❤❤😊
Can't wait to see you test the new squishy gel!
omg when i started getting tabs squishy tiktoks on my fyp, i immediately remembered your clear squishy videos!
Reminds me of the silicone process in terms of making prosthetics- a lot of them need to be powdered with baby powder or corn starch
What a fun trend! So cute!!
I love the look of these! Thank you for explaining
I love your channel because I learn about new things and trends in every single one of your videos.
Yesss I’m so glad you covered this!! I left a comment wondering about these a couple week ago!!
Very professional, on Chinese social networks, we call it 'nienie', is the verb pinch.which is usually made by individuals or simple studios and sold in personal shops
This is so cool and amazing. I used watch this as a child
Great video. I love that your videos include a science element..
Wow! Early to an upload! Cant wait to see what this is about Maqaroon!
I love this squishies, i have a collection of them in my room. hehe
I’ve been waiting for you to make a video about this !!
another creator I like to watch here on youtube Mani Land just posted a video about her new squishy gel which seems to ship international; I instantly thought of your videos and wanted to say in case you would be interested! I would love to see you try it out 💖
never been this early for a video before!! can’t wait to watch the video
I adore the paw print taba squishies! The colors & designs are so amazing :D
I learn so much from your vids
I love ur channel. it always makes my day better❤
Really adore those hello kittybuff sketches 😂😂
i cant speak for other countries but in turkey you can easily find pva bags as either pencil cases or makeup bags? i have like 5 of them lying around
OMG I BEEN WAITING FOR U TO DO THESE! I tried to message u ab it but lol
could you do a video on the other trending - super slow rising squishy? i still can't figure out the logic behind why it's so so slow rising!!
omg i love your videos☺
I love this video
This is cool!
Thank you for this video!
i love your videos 😍😍😍
These are really cute
SO CUTE
Awesome vid! I wonder if you could squish a tiny taba squishy inside a nano tape cube?
Have you ever used caulking mixed with cornstarch to make molds? It would be a lot cheaper than the two-part putty, and I've seen folks successfully use it for years :)
I tried doing that many years ago to make fake deco cream but unfortunately it didn't end well. The caulking was so difficult to remove from my skin...I wasn't sure if I got the wrong brand or type of silicone
@@maqaroon oh no! I've never touched it with my skin until it cured, I mixed mine in a plastic cup with a popsicle stick until it was a putty, and wore gloves since I have really sensitive skin.
Ooooo I tagged you a few days ago in a taba TikTok! Hahaha
Omg these are so cool! Honestly I’m shocked at how early I am tho
So they are not supposed to be taken out of the packaging ??
Yes, they're supposed to be squished through the plastic. It's much more ASMR-y than regular squishies but very satisfying
Omg can you do a vid on the hand painted beads on xiaohongshu i would absolutely LOVE toue take on them plssss 😩🙌🏽
hey maqaroon, I was trying to make a mold for hot glue, I was wondering if you can make a video based on cheap mold makers or even ones that you can make yourself that will not damage the resin piece or glue
always love ur cuds btw
I think the effect the ziplock bag had sticking to the squishy was kind of satisfying. 😅
OMG I need that.
Cute
Maquaroon, will you do something with poppy playtime to celebrate ch 3’s release??? Pretty please?😊
Hello ✨💗 does the A B rubber liquid silicone work for squishy ?
The new and improved BUFF hello kitty
So where would I get the a b silicone? Used with the silver label in the beginning on the original page where it went viral?
What if you change the mixing ratio for the pudding mochis squishy wouldn’t it have the same texture as Taba squishy?
I love your chanal I'm in love with your video's
Is the silicone only in chime or in a few different countries I need to do this
We’re do you buy Sophie and toffee squishy gel and your cat paw molds
Wow I wanna make one
If yes dat coool
I bought the older S&T squishy gel awhile back and I tried to use it for the first time recently and it didn't cure all the way. Extremely sticky/goopy on the mold side.
I'm not sure if I mixed it less than I should've or if the pigment was bad, or if my ratio was just way off somehow.
Have you had this happen?
I'm gonna have to experiment 😭
I'm surprised to hear that! The gel usually cures without problems, however the ratio needs to be 50:50, with possibly more hardener (40:60 for A: B). Though I have heard that things like temperature and room humidity can interfere with silicone curing so maybe that played a role
where did u get those?
Such a great video. Can you please do a Totoro/Studio Ghibli video, please
Not all flocking is small fibers. There are flocking fibers that are longer and used in dioramas. Saying that it’s not “real flocking” bc it’s longer is just incorrect
Is food coloring good for colors?
That's so interesting! I didn't know there were so many types of squishies omg
WHERE DID U GET THE BAG
FOR IT
As an avid hello kitty fan. I am 100% here for this
thanks for this informative vid! how much would u price one squishy? I cant tell, on top of the cost for the ingredients, whether it should be rather large amount for labor cost or not before finalizing the price of one squishy bag
I'm a seller of Handmade silicon Toys from China. We are recently planning to set up an independent station to sell these cute toys all over the world. The price of the customized toy in the video is expected to be $10 to $20.
I love your videos!
Nerd and smarttttt
Where’d u get the molds?
@07:22 the problem here can be resolved by using vaseline on the mold before pouring the silicone solution. That's what I saw those taba makers on xiaohongshu do. 7:23 7:23
i just saw UV clear putty on temu, it looks like a clear clay! you should totally try it out!!
I have that already 🤩! I also got from Temu and will be filming it soon
What is the app you went to for taba squishys I really want a real taba squishy
Hello dear, I am from Iran, we don't have ready-made packs like this, but you can find A-B sanitary silicone liquid with Shore 00. Can you make a perfect squishy with these materials?
be careful when buying from temu, there have been concerns over the working conditions of temu employees and the selling of data from the site to data brokers including personal info and credit card info
Yes in terms of payment I only use Paypal which has an added layer of encryption. Regarding working conditions I feel it's the same as Aliexpress and Taobao so most of the sellers are independent factories/stores.
Do you know why the AB glue comes in separate packaging instead of one big bottle? Is it no reason or just so it won’t dry up?
Can somebody slap in a link for these gels
I descovered maqaroon after 2 years I'm soo happy I found her again =D
Also (old) new subscriber 😊
I think this came from the 捏捏 trend that started in China, because I keep finding it in places such as 小红书 (Im Chinese btw)
Yep!! The squishies people make on 小红书 are incredible

Does hitohada gel say to measure by weight? If it doesn't then you should measure by volume
❤
maybe you can use baby powder on the molds to prevent it from sticking
Hello dear, I am from Iran, we don't have ready-made packs like this, but you can find A-B sanitary silicone liquid with Shore 00. Can you make a perfect squishy with these materials?😢😢😢
So basically its just a two part silicone mixture A and B but the shore hardness is very low? I bought one out of curiosity and took it out of the package, it felt like like it is a shore hardness of 00-10 to me.
Before adding the liquid
0:32 I have the same exact squishy
Try using food grade silicone
Squishychu just adds fuzz to it so it’s not sticky.
I have a small question... do you need to put the squishies in the freezer to dry?
I'll be honest, i want to make those for pawpads for paw gloves
if ur gonna use silicone a and b put Vaseline on the mold before you pour the silicones, it'll be easy to demold
Me starting the vid: meh I don’t see the hype
Me after the vid: WANT TO SQUISH
Hey, me just want to say hi 👋
Can you send me one of those kitty cat paws molds please
i want a tapa squishy!
