Hi Holly, I love it when u make your plain soap bar. Your crema cacao is #1 of your original when ur started. The 🍌buttermilk is also 1 of those that I love the way it cures with the specks. Both soap looks super creamy. I love and need every month a plain soap or oatmeal milk & honey soap. I never made any soap that u have made nor my small soap batch I can't make them like your. I use the heat transfer method so my soap still move to fast to make anything so high quality. I think I might go back to making cp again. That might give me more time to making the soap looks pretty.

I would check out Bramble Berry, Lovin' Soap, and The Nerdy Farmwife for some great beginner recipes. Take note that cold process soap requires a significant amount of research and testing before selling. It is recommended that you wait at least a year (more is ideal) before selling to fully understand the process and know how to look for errors, etc..

Hi Holly, I made a batch of soap with 3 kinds of milk, well, 1 was coconut cream and the other 2 were milks, my soap came out sticky and kinda soft and It's been cured way over 6 weeks and still soft and sticky, can using too much cream or milks make it that way? I took out water for the cream part, the others were powder, I'm just wondering if you would know if I used too much milks or coconut cream?

Hmm...I'm not sure without knowing the exact details. It's possible that the coconut cream brought too much superfat to the party, but it seems like there was too much water/liquid. Is there any chance you mis-measured? I don't have issues with the powders or the milk (I keep heavy cream super low) but I don't use them extravagantly either. These batches do happen every now and again.

@moriversoap
@moriversoap 2 жыл бұрын
All in all, it's just soap. It's meant to cleanse and rinse off. I'm more focused on how it makes the soap perform. As mentioned in the video, it adds a creamy feel to the soap as well as the sugar boosts the lather. The banana goes through the saponification process and it's turned into something intended for cleansing. We can't make any claims unless it is evaluated by the FDA...so even if there was something beneficial in any way other than for cleansing, we wouldn't be allowed to mention it.

The end pieces are always just a bit wonky. They have curved edges, gaps, air pockets, etc., due to the way the freezer paper lays in the mold. I just prefer for my cut bars to be all the same.

She’s not using full milk. If you use full milk and no water you have to freeze the milk and slowly mix the lye into the frozen milk cubes. This is so you don’t burn the milk or cuddle the milk. If you only use partial Milk you can do what she does pour so much of the liquid that you hold back from the water for the milk into the oil. I hope this explains it and doesn’t get you confused.

I have always just taken it as a loss. These batches are so large that it's just a pain and I don't actually like rebatched soap. So I don't do it. That being said, I haven't lost many batches in the many years that I've been making soap.

I do too. We just use scraps and wonky bars instead of the ones that I sell.

The soap looks beautiful. I wish it had a smell. I love banana foster or banana pudding. I bet it feels luxurious. I hope she sells them

I explained in the video how we can use the banana and milks in cold process soap. The lye acts as a preservative not allowing anything bad to grow. That being said, it does have to have a good balance or it could still go awry. Here is an article for you to check out: www.soapqueen.com/bath-and-body-tutorials/tips-and-tricks/how-to-add-purees-to-cold-process-soap/

@@moriversoap Thankyou! My assessor is not keen on fresh foodstuffs in soap, even in Hot Process. But I am in the EU, and we have very strict rules about what can go in cosmetics. Well, not if it is a toxic chemical: those are okay as long as they are on the list of approved (neuro)toxic or carcinogenic chemicals we can put in our food, medicin or cosmetics. But don't you dare put a bit of banana in your soap!
