Know before you buy
To activate the terracotta, soak the hedgehog in clean water for about 15 to 20 minutes. Pat it dry with a towel so it is damp to the touch but not dripping, then place it directly into your sugar container.
A single disc typically maintains optimal moisture levels for three to six months. Once you notice the sugar beginning to harden again, simply re-soak the disc to reactivate it.
Yes, these are excellent for maintaining the freshness of spices, dried fruits, or even baked goods like cookies. They work by absorbing excess humidity or releasing moisture as needed to keep your pantry staples in ideal condition.
Simply rinse the discs with warm water. Do not use soap, as the porous terracotta can absorb the scent and chemicals, which may then transfer to your food.
Measuring 2.5 inches wide and 2 inches long, these compact discs are designed to fit easily into most standard airtight canisters, jars, or storage bags without taking up significant space.
