package and ship sweaty soap??

[rounds3]

I have been using a black soap base from naturesgardencandels.com because it is the only way I have found to produce real black soap. The problem with it is that it is super 'sweaty'. Even the base will sweat after I have taken it out of the wrapper before it is melted. I don't put the soap in the freezer or anything and wrap it as soon as it is hard in clingwrap, but even then it sweats under the wrap-

Is there any way of preventing this? Is there any way of curing it or anything so it will stop sweating? and I will be selling and shipping these, I don't want my product to get to the customer covered in sweat crystals! Any advice?

You could try spraying it with alcohol, and then as soon as it dries, wrap it quickly.

If it is sweating straight out of it's wrap, I am thinking I would switch bases & get one I did not have to try and figure out how to fix.

Sounds like you could use the low sweat base. Humidity doesn't play nice with regular MP base.

I agree about switiching bases. It sounds like you definitely need a low sweat base since you are dealing with so much humidity.

You may also want to replace the clingwrap with cellophane. Clingwrap lets odor seep out over time so it probably lets some moisture in as well.
