Cardamom Mocha Salt Scrub Scoops

Occasionally, I like to use a body scrub when I shower.  It is a great way to soften the skin by exfoliating the dead skin off of my elbows, heels and feet.  But I am not a fan of the oil and salt combination because they seem to be a bit messy for my taste.  I prefer the solid form like the single sugar cube version I learned how to make in a class at The Nova Studio.  I found this one time use salt scrub recipe from Wholesale Supplies Plus called Cardamon Mocha Salt Scrub Scoops that I would like to try.  It is a very simple recipe that takes no time and you get a huge amount from this recipe to give out to friends and family.
