I do freeze some distilled water into ice cubes, just as I would with tea, milk or any other liquid I'm going to be using...and it does keep the lye water from getting so hot to begin with, which in turn cuts down on the wait time.

Wow! It's beautiful!

Cute...:-)

Good find...happy soaping! :-)

That's what I would think too, you'll have to be sure to let us know how it goes...pics are nice too. :-)
