Incredibly useful stuff this bicarb, obviously you use it in baking ( I add 2 spoons of cream of tartar to 1 of bicarb to make my own baking powder) but it also cleans the house without destroying the planet! I think everyone should have it in their house.

Works really well with foil and hot water for cleaning silver - especially good for jewelry with uneven surfaces that are hard to get at.

Parkin

Summary: Parkin is a cake that is traditionally eaten on or around the event of Bonfire Night. The recipe originates from the north of England, and whilst often associated with Yorkshire, it is also very popular in other areas of the UK, including Lancashire. Parkin can be baked hard and then allowed to soften with resting, when it also becomes more moist and sometimes sticky. It’s a tasty sweet treat to enjoy on a cold Autumn evening and is very simple to make. Our recipe uses agave syrup instead of molasses and if you wanted to make this recipe vegan, it would be very easy to use egg replacer and dairy-free butter and milk alternatives instead.

Natural Cream Deodorant Recipe

Summary: What is wrong with traditional deodorants ? Should you be making your own deodorant ? Traditional deodorants work by combining 2 main actions : 1. Killing all bacteria on the underarm skin, disrupting the skin microbiome. And 2. Using Aluminium salts to stop perspiration by blocking sweat ducts, keeping odour causing bacteria in check, as they need a moist environment to multiply. Both actions are very un-natural, and not only using traditional deodorants can make the problem worse, Aluminium is absorbed through the skin and has been found in cancerous breast tissue, so the general advice is now to avoid it. In addition to the potential health risk, making your own deodorant and storing it in a reusable glass jar will contribute to reducing the amount of waste, plastic and otherwise, that you produce. Our natural gentle cream deodorant is a great alternative to chemical deodorants. It is antibacterial thanks to the coconut oil, skin softening thanks to the cocoa and shea butter, the Sodium Bicarbonate gently balances the skin pH, the arrowroot or clay absorb humidity, the probiotics help balance the skin microbiome, and finally the essential oils provide natural scent. Lavender and patchouli is a lovely, gender neutral combination. You could use only coconut oil, but substituting some of the coconut oil with cocoa butter and shea butter will really soften the skin, especially if you have dry or sensitive underarm skin or if you shave your underarms. By adding the probiotics, you increase the odour protection, as the beneficial bacteria limits the development of the odour creating bacteria. Choose probiotics that are stable at room temperature, as this way you will be able to keep your deodorant in the bathroom rather than in the fridge. The recipe makes enough to fill a 60ml jar.
