Cinnamon is used as a spice due to its healing properties. It is also used because it has a nice fragrance. Cinnamon flavored toothpicks have been used for many years as the demand for them has been growing over the years. They are used to freshen the breath, as a smoking sensation and also removes food particles from teeth. To make a cinnamon toothpick, just a few ingredients are required, and it only takes a night to complete the process.
The cinnamon is usually in liquid form. A small amount is poured into the airtight container that you have. The lid should be the right size so that no air goes in or out. The jar should be slightly taller than the sticks so that they stand properly inside and allow for the lid to fit nicely.
The next step is to put the number of wooden sticks that you want to make toothpicks from. They should be the height of the container so that it can be closed easily. So as to maximize the container, ensure that they completely fill all the spaces that are available. Five hundred would be a good number for a medium sized container.
After you have carefully arranged the sticks inside the container, you need to close it tightly. You need to ensure the lead is firm enough so as to avoid any form of leakage that could lead to the loss of the cinnamon. You should then go ahead and invert the container in order to allow for even distribution of the flavor inside the sticks.
You should let the jar remain that way overnight. This is to allow enough time for the sticks to absorb as much flavor as possible. Even though the cinnamon is only a small amount, you will find that it will work effectively because of its strong scent and the air tight container. In the morning, you will find that the stick will be wet from the cinnamon, and they will have acquired this flavor.
Once the twelve hours are over, remove the sticks from the container. You should place them on a place which is nonabsorbent. This is so that it does not such the cinnamon from the sticks. The place should be clean too. Wash your hands properly before handling the sticks so that you do not contaminate them.
You cannot know if they are dry by just looking at them, you will have to feel with your hands. When you are sure that they are completely dry, it means that they are ready to use. They are completely safe and healthy too. Handle them in a clean environment and with clean hands.
The last step is to pack them. Do this in an air tight container so that they do not lose the flavor with time. If they are for home use, keep them in a tight container. Those for sale should be sealed properly too. If there is any cinnamon that remained in the container, tightly close it in and leave it for use next time.
