Pottasium Nitrate, you are after the -ate, which is rich in oxygen, this helps combustion.
Sugar is your raw power, the thing that burns(makes you really appreciate how much energy is in sugar)
Baking soda, Sodium Bicarbonate, you are after this:
2NaHCO3 → Na2CO3 + H2O + CO2
which will release CO2 and H2O to slow down the reaction
(Kind of conter the effect of Nitrate, weird..., I'd just add less nitrate but I think abit of everything makes the reaction more "regulated" and "stable"
Powdered dye... well self-explainitory.

If you don't add the baking soda you can make a hobby rocket fuel.

I also read people saying to be EXTREMELY careful when heating it up, because it may combust in your kitchen.

Toxic fumes are released when you mix bleach and ammonia.

which is why many many people pass out from mixing house cleaning products every year.

chloride gas forms
something interesting i just read the other day - something so obvious and dangerous rarely has safety labels detailing the problems because of extremely good lobby groups for the big companies

People HAVE died from mixing cleaning products (bleach and ammonia), you don't want to mess around with that shit.

This smoke bomb thing does work, I did it with some cousins a few years ago. You do have to be careful heating though, as if combusts while you are heating it, it's very bad, to say the least. I would make these in lower proportions if you don't know what you're doing yet.

We mixed bleach and ammoina to clean the floors. And then it started to smell like chlorine. And then we realized everyones' faces were bright red. Then we got the fuck out of there.
