My idea for waterproofing a bowl once was decoratively gold leaving with 
  several sheets of overlapping edible gold leafing sheets, and they 
were stuck into the bowls using egg white with a smidge of honey added. 
Didnt ooze the strawberry juices at all, and noticed no sgtgructural 
problems. Bit expensive to do for anything but a laurel vigil though...
