Halloween soap...failed injection embed

[Paintguru]

Well I wanted to try a new technique (to me) where I used a frosting injector to embed black "balls" into my orange soap matrix. I was hoping that it would go in smoothly and create nice spheres. Unfortunately, as you can see from the pictures, that didn't happen. I think I let the orange matrix get too thick before injecting (FO probably accelerated things a bit). Also, as you can tell, I clearly did not use enough activated charcoal for my coloring (more gray in person than jet black). I guess in the future I'll just make my embeds before hand (and by hand) instead of trying to combine things into one step.

It might not have turned out as you pictured, but it does still look cool and works as a Halloween soap! Good job!!
