Cutting embeds

[Carly B]

I have one of those wooden multi-bar cutters with wires. I have heard you can't cut M&P with them, so I was
wondering, for those of you who make soap loaves and put in loaf length embeds made of M&P, how do you cut
them? By hand? Or can the wires handle a small bit of M&P?

I don't want to make a loaf and put it in my cutter if it won't work. Ruin both the soap and the cutter.

I don't know' sorry I couldn't be more help.

Royalty Soaps on YouTube often has M&P embeds in her soaps and she uses her multibar cutter all the time. Specially when she uses embed "canes" (long, tube embeds to go across a mold); most often when she does a moon theme. I don't know if she makes any adjustments or the type of quality of cutter, so I would suggest looking more into that. But I have seen it done.

I've cut m&p embeds on top of cp soap before and just went really slooooow and careful. I don't recommend it unless you enjoy adrenaline

I bought a big *** two handled cheese knife to cut my soap with MP embeds.

Good choice! I bought a similar knife for use with my slab molds (before I ended up buying a slab cutter) & sometimes I bring it with me while traveling because it's easier to pack than a slab cutter.
