Thank you surfgirl for inspiring me to make this :D
This soap didn't gel so is a little soft but it looks lovely and creamy. It's a liitle more orange in person.
 
sweet!....


and dont worry it will harden up over time (usually about a 1 - 6 month cure is reccommended!)

great job!!
 
Yum - nice creamy-looking soap! I would like to try to make soap that golden orange colour too, one of these days (so many things to try!). You used straight carrot juice, right?

Orange essential oil gives soap a little orange colour also.

I made soap and used sweet orange essential oil, and the soap gelled. It came out looking like marmalade.
I wanted the creamy looking soap.

It can be hard to stop your soap from gelling...I made a buttermilk & shea which I put straight in the fridge and it still gelled like crazy! Next time I will whack it straight into the freezer for at least several hours and see how that goes :D
