If there is one thing that children enjoy doing more than to eat, that would be to play and create. Most of the kids are interested in trying out something new. It is no wonder then how the easy steps in making flavored toothpicks becomes a treat for them.
The popularity of making it has spread not only throughout the continental U. S. Areas outside the country has known cinnamon toothpicks for quite a while now. The secret is not only because it is easy and can be a good past time for people of all ages. It has its hygienic benefits like providing you fresh breath which is favorable for many.
Making one set is easy. All you need to do is to gather all the necessary materials and follow the simple steps. To start, you have to have a cinnamon oil, a clean plate or cutting board, a clean, empty jar, and a set of toothpicks.
Once completed, you are now ready to proceed. Begin by dropping two ounces of cinnamon oil in the vial or glass. Get your set of round toothpicks and put them inside the vial. Then, cover the container tightly.
Be mindful of the covering that you use in your jar. It has to be tight enough to prevent the oil from leaking out of the container. Once secured, store it overnight at someplace not directly exposed to sunlight or too much cold. The point of storing it this long is to be certain that the oil has seeped through the toothpicks carefully.
The point of leaving the materials overnight is for the toothpicks to completely absorb the oil. This means that the whole set should be bathed in the oil for you to experience its full benefit after. Also, it is important to note that the vial should be put at an area away from too much sunlight. The normal room temperature will be the ideal location where you have to place it.
Now let us fast forward to the next day after. This time, you may already remove the contents from the vial. But first, get a plate. This is where you should lay them down for drying. Do not use a fan for drying them up. Neither should you go out and leave the set exposed to heat. Let it dry naturally. It may take some time, but that is an acceptable trade for a best result.
It may take several minutes sometimes few hours before all the sticks dry but the wait will definitely be worth it. After drying, you are already good to go. Just pick one and try using it. Store the rest at a clean jar with appropriate covering in order to retain their scent. Once again, do not place the container somewhere in direct heat. The best choice would be somewhere inside your living room. Just make sure you place it somewhere out of heavy traffic.
So you see, the process is simple. You do not even need to cook and fire up something just to make it. The best part is, you get to enjoy its cooling benefits. Do not miss the chance.
