Thank you.
I drop them in the mold in layers and hope like heck they don't decide to float to other parts of the mold.

I just saw this, that soap is great. I bet it was a big hit. What did you use to dye you gum balls? I have been trying to get colors like that, but every time I try to dye it never comes out like I picture it.
 
Oh WOW, I love this soap Ktn! I am dying to try a soap with embedded balls. I thought I would have to grate up the soap and then try to form the grated soap into balls. I was hoping there was an easier way. These look fantastic.

Did you scent the balls as well as the main soap? Do you increase your F/O amount when you're adding unscented embeds?

Love it- so creative and FUN :D
 
No I didn't scent the balls , just put .5oz extra in the main batch . Shredding and making them isn't to bad a chore , not much different than rolling the fresh soap into balls . I just get a large tray and watch tv and make soap planets / balls . It is boring , for sure .:D
 
so when you make the balls, did you actually shred the soap? Like with a cheese grater? and the smush it together? Or could you just scoop out a melon baller size and roll it up? If you shred it do you have to add water??
 
Hi Amanda
when I make balls I shred with a grater and soften slightly in the microwave (full power for a couple of mins), then its really each to roll anysize balls. ive never tried with a melon ball thing but that could work too although Im not sure it would be very even.
