well since the first carrot went south I did another, cp this time along with my first lard and camo soaps. the yellow in the lard is a little orange zest made with orange infused grape seed oil. smells good

Thanks everyone. I dehydrate parsley then throw it in the magic bullet. I find myself just liking to make soap more and more always playing with soap calc, just can't help myself:crazy:

That gorgeous green is just from dehydrated parsley?! I make celery salt all the time by leaving the leaves out about a day then putting them in the oven for 5-7 minutes. Would the same approach work with parsley? I haven't worked with any colors yet but I really like the idea of using natural colorants as much as possible.

jules I don't see why it wouldn't work. parsley is cheap and it doesn't take much I do the same with carrots this summer I am gonna try different fruits and veggies. I like to use my dehydrator

If you don't mind my asking, how much parsley per lb of soap or oils did you use for that color?

Awesome!

Did you use the curly parsley or flat leaf for that color too, if you care to share. Or maybe I will just try both to see if it makes a difference. Maybe a double green swirl?!
