I prepared a Bastille recipe yesterday and coloured the batter with white, yellow and blue pigments. Here's the soap when molded:

And here it is cut:

It ended up with a off-white, yellow and light blue swirl which is not too bad!
This gelled by the way, I am wondering whether to force it not to gel the next time.
 
very nicely done! it's beautiful! personally I prefer gelled soap...it can be cut sooner and seems to last longer in the bath. btw, next time you post pics of your lovely soaps, enter them in our photo gallery section so we can all admire them and they won't get lost.

:problem: admin...would you move this to the correct forum, plz?
 
I used a FO from Brambleberry titled Energy, but very little of it.
This was 80% virgin OO (hence the green-ish tint), 15% tallow and 5% castor oil.
