"It's Dragon Marrow, more precisely a Peruvian Vipertooth. It is strong, compact and contains the minerals we need for bone regeneration... Because the Viperfoot is native to Peru, you'd think muggles would know of it's existence. They do not. Some people believe that particular type of dragon has camouflage abilities and that is why the marrow adapts to a human's... I'm not sure how true that is, but it works." She then took the horn powder and raised it. "Unicorn Horn, powdered this also has many minerals and properties to strengthen and re-grow bones." She said and then she pulled out the Jello packet. "Who knows what this is? You each have a different flavor. What is it, and why is it used?" She asked.
Alice let out a small sigh of relief. She was glad that she was wrong! Copying down what Professor Lafay said about Peruvian Vipertooth and powdered Unicorn Horn, Alice looked up when she asked what the packet in her hand was.

"That's instant jello, isn't it Professsor? And I suppose given it's spongy consistency and the way it kind of forms into a big blob when you make it, it could be used to hold the ingredients of the potion together?"
