Hello:
Definitely not a toothpick. This is part of a child's toy set which would have had a cream, sugar, butter and spoonholder. The pattern is Tappan and it was originally produced by McKee in clear only. It was widely reproduced by Kemple beginning in the 1950s in many different colours. The covered piece is the sugar. Do you have another piece or is the second photo the sugar with out its lid?
