Suspect spots?

[Shazzer]

Hello!

I just cut a loaf onto bars and noticed some spots I'm unsure of. I cut the loaf a little soon, it's been about 24 hours. The trace seemed perfectly normal when I poured; I did add more clay after since it wasn't the colour I wanted yet, and I didn't dissolve it in powder first so there are a couple chunks which are not incorporated. But these spots seem different, also not like the little air bubbles from the wire cutter. Are these oil pockets? Is my soap a no-go...? Or, fingers crossed, could they be harmless?

Thanks! Won't it kinda zap me anyway if it's barely 24 hrs old? I've never done it this soon, I thought it just always would at this stage?

If your more comfortable waiting a few days' to check then do that. It could be Oils that will reabsorb too.

Did you add scent? Looks like FO spots, not lye. Zap test in a few days, I bet it will be fine.

Ah, I did wonder if it might be that. I used essential oils but stirred them in by hand somewhat late... Maybe I didn't integrate it enough...
