Pure Sandalwood Powder - 100% Natural Sandalwood Dust - Culinary Grade, Raw, Vegan, Non-GM

Key Uses: Natural Dye, Culinary, and Oral Care

This sandalwood powder is famous for its many applications. As a natural dye, it gives a gorgeous deep red colour to fabrics like linen, silk, and wool – just simmer the powder with water and your fabric for 30–60 minutes for vibrant, lasting results. In the kitchen, a small pinch can colour cakes, tea, or puddings, or you can infuse it into drinks for a refreshing twist. It also works as a mouthwash or tooth powder when mixed with water. The powder's natural essential oils, including sesquiterpenes and cedrol, along with dyes and flavonoids, are behind its impressive versatility.

How to Use Sandalwood Powder Safely

For dyeing, combine the powder with water in a pot, add your fabric, and simmer for 30–60 minutes. Rinse thoroughly afterwards. For cooking, add sparingly – a tiny pinch is enough to change colour or add a mild flavour. Always test a small amount first. For oral care, mix a little powder with water to make a paste for brushing, or dilute as a mouthwash. Do not swallow large amounts. Store in a cool, dry spot away from sunlight, and keep the bag sealed. Keep out of reach of children. Always read the labelled and follow the directions for use.
