    Soap soft and olive oil color in mold after 24 hours

    Can anyone help me figure out what happened? When I poured it in the mold it was thick enough to create hill and valley designs on top with a spoon, vanilla pudding color. next day it looks like a semi solid olive oil colored mess. 33% coconut oil, 33% palm, 34% olive, 15 g fragrance oil, 40%...
