If I were to make a cold process soap with cocoa powder and coffee, would it smell like a mocha? Or just anywhere near that?
How about if I make one without those and throw a bunch of spices in it (cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, etc)?
Do I need fragrance or EOs in order to scent it, even if a mild scent will do?
One more question. I have a whole bunch of pears in the freezer. If I puree them and use them as part of the water, would the lye turn them a funky color? I have italian plums too which impart a lovely dark purple to baked dishes, would the purple come thru or would it just be brown? (I know the smells from the fruit would not survive).
