This week I'm making a Thai tea soap, and had the idea to do two batters...one made with Thai tea, the other made with coconut milk. My hope is to swirl them together to get the classic Thai tea look, but I'm skeptical about mixing two different kinds of batters. Everything about the recipes are the same, one is just made with tea and the other with coconut milk.
Thoughts or advice?
 
The only thing that would concern me is that if one accelerates more than the other. If someone else can suggest if one WOULD accelerate more than the other, you could do the faster one second. Then, you maybe would have them at a similar consistency. Someone with more experience using Tea and/or milks would have more insight.
 
Update!
Everything went smoothly with the tea batter & coconut milk batter. I kept the coconut milk lye solution in an ice bath to control the temp, and was sure that both batters were within 5 degrees of each other.
I don't love the final design, but that was unrelated haha
