Hello,
I am new to the forum and glad to have found some experts to help me! I am a beekeeper and make soaps with my beeswax and honey, and the usual olive oil, coconut oil, lye. I have two troubles; one is I can't get the honey to stay suspended when I add it near trace and worst of all, is that as my soaps cure they develop a chalky substance on the surface. I use fancy molds with bees and comb depicted on them, the chalky surface is impossible/difficult to remove from the design.
Please advise,
