What I do is mix my honey in a small bit of my batch water that's been warmed up...just enough water to thin out the honey to a watery consistency.... then I add it to my cooled lye solution. It mixes right in quite effortlessly......... but fair warning- along with the heat and color change, it will exude a deep caramelized scent, which mellows out to a lovely, mild, Bit 'O Honey candy-like scent when my soap is done. I wish that scent would last forever, but alas, it gradually disappears to nothing over time, so I've taken to scenting my honey soaps with Peak's Wild Mtn Honey FO, which smells awesome.
