Gorgeous swirls! Love how organic they look!

thank you Zany, you're too kind ☺

it really does look like a pretty stream! :)

thank you! :)

thank you! i used quite a high proportion - 75ml heavy cream in 800ml oils. i used the milk in oil method (ime it helps to keep the uncoloured parts paler and when it's blended in the oils, it seems to scorch less) and superfatted at 2% to compensate for the extra fat in the heavy cream.

thank you!!
