BB's Tropical Vacation

[GreenScene]

Oh. My. Gosh. I am in love. I soaped with this last night and did an ITP three color swirl, where I tried to use "sunset" colors - pink, blue, and orange - like the ones you might see in the sky while you were on an island vacation. Anyway, Bramble Berry's website says the FO accelerates trace, but I didn't have a problem with it, maybe because I soap with oils and lye at room temperature. It doesn't smell like I thought it would, but it does smell divine. Very light and sweet, almost like candy. In fact, my daughter and I agree that it smells a lot like SweeTarts. The stuff is heaven, and my only complaint is that the soap isn't hard enough for me to cut yet (first two slices crumbled a bit at the bottom), while most of my loaves cut just fine after 24+ hrs. Anyway, if you're thinking of trying it, I'd definitely recommend it.

Thanks for the recommendation, Mel.

Post a pic when you get it out of the mold. It sounds very pretty.

I've been thinking about trying that one. You've convinced me!

Maybe for sugar scrub cubes.....
