So disappointed, smelled amazing and tried with cp soap to make a beautiful light blue and grey and white swirl and I immediately got soap on a stick! Ugh!!
Yes, that is what I just did and it looks like split pea soup but at least it smells good!

Hello! Just a thought - were your soaping oils too warm when you add this FO? Sometimes having your oils too warm - like well over 100 degrees F - can cause some sensitive FO's to become "soap-on-a-stick". Depending upon your recipe try soaping a tad cooler (100 and a little lower) then add the FO and mix thoroughly before adding the lye solution. After adding the lye solution hand mix (spoon or whisk) and see if it happens again. A stick blender can sometimes make reactions happen way to fast. Usually if you can get everything emulsified you can pour into your mold before a quick trace happens. This may help - or it happens to be the nature of this particular FO beast :twisted: for cp soapmaking.
