The buyer is playing a practical joke. The news people jumped on this story a little bit too soon. Go to ebay and read the comments that the seller left on the review.
Best joke ever.

For the love of Pete, will you guys please use metric. acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s^2. the center of the board accelerates at this rate but since the board is attached to a hinge and pivoting, the end accelerates faster.

Richnak:
the shadow moves with the blade so if the blade doesn't appear to be moving, neither does the shadow.
This is the same effect that you occasionally see in cars that have been filmed and because of the framerate of the camera, the wheels appear to move backwards. Or for that matter, why under artificial lighting (with and alternating current) your wheels seem to turn backwards. It's a strobe effect. Turn off the lights and wave your hand back and forth rapidly in front of your monitor. If you get the right speed, your hand will appear stationary as well.

This doesn't seem like it would work. The soda would be too flat and the reaction that occurs happens because of the powdery surface of the candy which would dissolve in the water before the cubes froze.
