I made some pine sap soap. Using sap from a Scott pine tree, I did an oil infusion with Olive oil and melted about 50% of the sap the rest was hard and would only disolve with rubbing alcohol, i did not not include that in the soap so the olive oil had a nice pine scent to it . i used 60 % olive oil 30% coconut oil, 10% canola oil , and i used 2% L-10 bentonite and non swelling bentonite that is clean . the batch traced very fast but i got it in the mold and the next day got it cut into pieces. and it has a very nice pine scent . lets hop it lasts but its smelling really piney for sure. It lathers nice almost like shaving cream. one thing i found out about dissolving. pine sap is olive oil will get most of it but you will have about 40% that is hard and gummy that only alcohol will get to dissolve
