Makes 7 medium sized bombs

1 1/4 cups baking soda or bicarbonate of soda

Combine all dry ingredients in a bowl and stir until well mixed. Drizzle in almond oil and food coloring and stir until mixture is moistened. Add fragrance oil or vanilla bean innards and mix again. If the mixture is crumbly then add more oil or a dash of water. Roll the mixture into a ball using your hands or press it into a lightly oiled mold. (Spandex used a Madeline pan and shallow tart pans), but silicone cupcake tins, ice cube trays and even chocolate candy molds work fine and give more quantity due to the smaller size. After molding balls or shapes, put out of the molds gently and place on a sheet wax paper. Leave to dry for several DAYS, until it is rock hard. Bag or place in jars and use accordingly.
