Description I saw this whilst looking at some 6th year final architectural projects at the university of Bath. It's plaster of paris that set around balloons which were then popped.

It doesn't warm up at all, it's *like* mixing flour & water...
The balloons probably shrunk at bit, but the pressure wouldn't pop them. Think how far you could push a balloon underwater, it would just get smaller, but not burst
