THE INCENSE FAERIE
Introducing : SNOWDRIFT and SNOWFLAKE

The Incense Faerie range of incense powders, solid incenses, and limited edition blends are made using only the highest quality natural ingredients, which have been organically grown or wildcrafted. The Incense Powders have been created for use without charcoal - simply light the incense and let it smoulder and release the fragrant smoke without any charcoal distraction...

Snowdrift is an Incense Powder which you can burn loose, or combine with a little water (or snow, as I do) to to create your own incense shapes.

Snowdrift Powder - burn loose or make solid

INCENSE POWDER : HOW TO USE

For best results burn on a bed of ash, in a suitable, heatproof censer. Ash allows for better ventilation, ensuring all your incense burns, and also protects the censer from the heat of the incense burning.

"Pinch & Burn" : No charcoal or additional makko required. Simply take a pinch of incense powder, or spoon the powder into a cone or mound shape onto your bed of ash, and light the tip with a flame. Let the flame go out, or gently blow, and the incense powder will smoulder, releasing the fragrance.

Incense Trail : Alternatively, burn as an incense trail : trace a shape in your bed of ash and gently fill the groove with incense powder.
Light the end of the trail with a flame, allow the flame to go out and the incense will smoulder along its path.

So long as your incense trail or mound is still smouldering you can add additional incense powder as required - giving you complete control over how much incense to burn in one sitting.

SOLID INCENSE SHAPES : HOW TO MAKE

Add sufficient water (little by little) to the Snowdrift Incense Powder to create a sticky dough, squeezing and rolling the incense dough into your desired shapes. You can squash little balls of dough into flat shapes to make 'snowflakes' (as below) or roll them gently into cone shapes - or even a snowman! Leave to dry thoroughly before use. The thicker the shape the longer it will take to dry. Never be tempted to rush the drying process.

To burn, place your dried shape on a bed of ash, light the edge or tip of your incense shape... and enjoy your new incense!

Both the Incense Powder and resulting Incense Shapes will leave a shimmer of silver in their ash once they have finished burning... just like the first dustings of snow glistening in the moonlight...

Dividing Line

The Incense Faerie makes and sells both Snowdrift (Incense Powder) and Snowflake (Incense Shapes, as seen below in their final drying stage).
Snowdrift is sold in 20g Boxes, and 50g Pouches.
Snowflake
is presented in little white boxes containing at least 16 snowflakes (3g) of various sizes.

Snowflakes

These Snowflake Incense Shapes (above and below) were made by combining Snowdrift Incense Powder with a little Snow. The 2015 Snowflake packs contain a blend of batches, bringing you snowflakes from Wales (super big fluffy ones, which I gathered as they fell) and snow from Suffolk.

Snowflakes

Snowdrift Incense Powder is made by blending together freshly ground white willow, frankincense (maydi and beyo raw), vanilla pods, green cardamom, star anise, makko and silver mica (for that added bit of shimmer). 100% Natural, Cruelty-Free, and Delicious!
