Oh my god i love these!!! 😻😻

I asked a lawyer and he said that it would come under cottage industries category and the license is very easy to obtain. Has anyone explored this option?

I haven't seen these butters in any market. I think they are relatively new in Indian cosmetic industry. Not used in homes. Ruchi gold i have seen. Will look out for it. Thanks for the tips.

Cabbage fritters. Use shreddes cabbage and a bit of sliced onions, mix it with flour. I use chickpea flour. Add salt, pepper, mixed herbs, and water only if neccessary. (Cabbage will give out some water). Fry it or air fry it for a quick snack.

Looks very pretty. What percentage heavy cream did you use?

Thank you for your very detailed reply. I will try the second formula today. Based on what you said, i'll use a whisk. Lets see how it goes. Also i am using small moulds with lovely shapes, not a loaf mould. Hope that would help to keep temperatures lower. Wil lincrease the SF to 10%.

I am buying from Amazon/Vedaoils. So don't think it matters where I am in India. :) I found all the butters to be expensive. Minimum 550/kg. So I want to avoid using in soaps, unless its a very small quantity. Another factor is that I don't want to purchase a bunch of oils and stuff. It is not...

Lard is pig fat. I don't work with animal fats. Many indian consumers would not want it in their soap. So its not widely available.

I used Disano pomace olive oil. It was a castile soap. My oil traced very fast. I had heard that olive oil is very slow moving, so it was very unexpected for me. Did you use virgin or extea virgin OO?

Faster than coconut oil?

I am 99% sure its the olive oil. Which brand did you use? I would say try single oil soaps first if you are new to soap making. that ways you understand each oil. Try really small batches.

Hello, I used this oil in cp soap recently and i suspect it is adulterated. It traced very quickly, before i could add any thing. I was hoping someone would have information about a reliable olive oil source.
