    WHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhyyyyyyyyyyy?????? Single Cavity Molds

    Soap hutch molds....should I?

    Soaphutch molds I already ordered my Soaphutch, very expensive mold. I did look at the Kelsei molds, but I didn't know if the dividers were fastened together like Rich's. I ordered a very versatile mold, so I'm sure I'll be happy with it. I just remember how frustrated I was with my present...

    Soap hutch molds....should I?

    soaphutch molds That's quite an investment you have there - FIVE molds! These days I am just hooked on swirling in my divider mold, but it only makes twelve bars. My new one will make eighteen. Did you find that your first batches stuck at all?

    Soap hutch molds....should I?

    soaphutch molds Soapbuddy, do you oil your dividers on your Soaphutch molds? Do you have any problems unmolding the middle logs as opposed the ones on the sides? I am really looking forward to getting my molds. Which ones do you have?

    Bath Bomb Frosting Question

    bath bomb cupcakes I use Soap Queen's recipe for both the bomb and the frosting. I buy my meringue powder with coupons at Michael's. When I get to the States, I get it at Hobby Lobby, where it is MUCH cheaper, and I use a coupon. They turn out absolutely adorable, and they are awesome in the...

    Soap hutch molds....should I?

    soaphutch molds I finally decided to get a Soaphutch mold, which I ordered last week. I am getting the new Uber mold, which is four inches deep, has dividers for 18 bars, three logs one way for 3 1/4 inch wide bars, four logs the other way for 2 1/4 inch wide, tall bars. I cannot wait until...

    Favorite mold?

    Soaphutch molds Me too! Yay! I officially ordered my Soaphutch mold yesterday. It's costing me a fortune, which I wish I'd done right from the start. I have lots of old molds that have been tossed into a corner. So, best advice for someone looking for their first great mold - don't be...

    Favorite mold?

    soaphutch molds I am still waiting to hear back from Rich too. It's a bit frustrating. I've looked at the Kelsei molds. Does anyone have anything to say for or against them? I would like to know if the dividers snap together before you push them down into the soaps like Rich's do. Re...

    Favorite mold?

    Soaphutch I have been trying to get hold of Rich too. He sent me a quote and pdf of a custom mold, I responded, and I haven't heard a word from him. Everyone has said such favorable things about his molds. I would like to know how timely he is in getting things done and if the mold will be...

    how do you add POP Colors from TKB ?

    mixing pop micas I have had great success with my liquid pop micas. I was initially stirring with a spoon and then zapping with a stick blender, but I didn't like the way my colored soap got so thick. I picked up a mini frother at Ikea for really cheap. It runs on 2 AA batteries, and it is...

    First attempts at "YummyScrumptious" Bars

    white mica swirls I recently did a batch of cp goat's milk soap with swirls in pearlescent blue, gold, and a dusky blue that I created by mixing Pop Micas. The pearlescent blue is a very cool, shimmery swirl. I am pretty certain that you could do the same with pearlescent white mica. I was...

    Pigments from tkb trading.....?

    Non-cosmetic colorants For those soaping in Canada, you must be careful to consider that soap is a cosmetic in Canada. Some soap suppliers are selling the neon pigments, which are non-cosmetic colorants, and saying that they are safe for soap. This is illegal in Canada. I'm not saying I...

    If you make goat's milk - HELP!!!

    goat's milk soap I thought I would throw my two cents worth in here. ALL I make is goat's milk soaps, usually at 100% of the fluid. I have found that using frozen milk, chopped into chunks, mixed with lye, stirred until all the milk is thawed, works best for me. The mixture usually ends up...
