Sugar & Spice and everything nice: Homemade Gingerbread Sugar Scrub

Merry Christmas! It's has been a while since my last post. Time flies and it's Christmas again!

I know I promised more Thai Iced Tea recipes in my last post. Apologies as my dad has been sick and going in and out of hospital these past 2 months so this blog has been neglected.

This year, I am into DIY gifts. Took a class in making soy candles and made a few for close friends. I have been wanting to make the homemade sugar scrubs but haven't had the time. This morning, I had the urge to make the sugar scrub and decided to share a simple DIY Christmas gift recipe. Its not for eating but everything in the recipe is edible so do feel free to taste :) I didn't make any gingerbread cookies this year due to the hectic schedule so this will have to make do.




Homemade Gingerbread Sugar

2 cups raw sugar
3/4 cup sweet almond oil (or other carrier oil)
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp allspice
1/2tsp ground nutmeg


1) Mix all the dry ingredients together in a bowl


2) Slowly add in the sweet almond oil and mix well

3) Pour into a pretty glass container and tie a ribbon around the bottle for a pretty gift.

Merry Christmas everyone and enjoy your time with family and friends!
