I made a batch last hour with three EOs. I hardened quickly but was ok. I want to make frosting for the soap should I use the same EOs used or it is better not to add any in order to control the creaminess of the frosting. Do you fragrance your frosting usually or not?
 
Right now I only have one soap that I 'frost' and I don't use any scent in it because the FO discolors. None of the YT soapers that I follow put scent in their frosting because of acceleration and discoloration.
 
It sounds like the EOs that you are using may not work in the frosting if they set up very fast. I have put fragrance in my frosting before, but you have to know how it behaves before you do....otherwise it can set up too much in the bag. I've split several bags trying to pipe too hard soap frosting, and I've even had soap gel in the piping bag before (which is also no bueno)
