First itp swirl

[afbrat]

I did it! Kinda looks like a steak because of the colors lol. Smells like cocoa butter.

Lol! It does look like steak! There's a spam soap floating around here somewhere too, I believe. Your swirls turned out great though!
How much cocoa butter did you use for the scent to survive?

 

[TheDragonGirl]

Oh wow it really does, the actual swirls themselves are lovely!

I am sure you did, but make sure to cut the soap up in little pieces before microwaving it. On a cookie sheet? I would give it a try, but watch the soap because MP gets very hard-and you may find it's hard to cut with a cookie cutter. Best of luck!

And oh- about buying FO. That's a good question. It is trial & error. So many people have different recipes, etc...it's personal taste. I would first look for somewhere that has good shipping rates to your location. You'll soon find out shipping take a HUGE chunk out of profit, etc...

It's awesome and between your steak soap, the spam soap, and my pizza soap, we've got a buffet going LOL

Why on earth am I craving a big juicy steak at 8AM???

It looks great! I'm curious if you used FO or if your cocoa butter scent just survived?

LOL Now I'm getting hungry!

I used 3 oz (11.5%) of cocoa butter in a batch of 26 oz of total oils

Nice swirl. now you'll have to replicate it with a bacon FO (I'm sure there's one out there).

Has it cured yet?

I have a maple bacon FO. From the words of my brother "it smells like cracker barrel". Kinda great though and really sticks.

 

[rparrny]

Anyone else have a craving for Outback? :lolno:

 

[afbrat]

Has it cured yet?

Not yet. Just poured it Monday so it will be a while

 

[afbrat]

Every time I go to check on this soap I laugh at how much it looks like steak lol. I'm going to have to order some bacon FO and see if I can duplicate the look. My daughter would freak out!
