A heating tape and heating pad. In a most general embodiment, the inventive tape includes a first layer of thermally conductive material; a second layer of thermal insulation; and a third layer of exothermic material, sandwiched between the first and second layers. The third layer is constructed with reactants effective to cause an exothermic chemical reaction. In a first embodiment, the invention provides a beverage heating device. In a second embodiment, the invention provides a pipe heating device. The heating pad is implemented with a first layer of thermally conductive material; a second layer of material providing a base; and a third layer of exothermic material, sandwiched between the first and second layers. In the illustrative embodiment, the third layer has a contour effective to create suction whereby the pad adheres to a surface to be heated.
