Tea Dust Candy Bowl

This little snack bowl can hold about a cup of candied almonds. You don’t really need more than that, do you? You’ve not really done much outside of taking the dogs for a short walk today. So maybe sitting around eating a 4 pound bag of nuts isn’t the best option. But, a little bowl of candied almonds never hurt anyone, unless they’re allergic.

If you are allergic to candied almonds, don’t put them in this bowl. Otherwise, you can enjoy this little 8 fl ounce candy bowl too. The glaze is a “tea-dust” glaze made with albany slip (a chemical that hasn’t been produced for about 15 or 20 years so you know it’s pretty special) and iron oxide. The iron helps make sure you can use it as a bullet-proof item (not really, but it sounds cool). That iron also gives the glaze the little blossoms of tan or baby puke or whatever that color is. I like it though, the glaze has a nice texture and the bowl is actually perfectly sized for a small snack.
