I finally was able to prevent/lessen the stearic spots caused by a new brand of palm oil. I made 2 batches of a special order for my bud, Tim. His Christmas gifts are to put my soaps in mugs. The photo on the left is batch 1 with stearic spots, and batch 2 with fewer.

Clever! And so special! I "see" the soap in the mug, dropped into a clear bag, tied with a festive ribbon and a hang tag like this one with a blurb that includes your email addy at the bottom... just in case someone wants more!

LOL! My bud in Hawaii placed a special order for 2 loaves of my Hot Cocoa soap to give away as gifts. He keeps texting and sending photos. And his friend -- the mayor -- loved it!!

I'm surprised. When I think of a drink to warm your tummy in Hawai'i, I think of something fruity, with an umbrella, and a little sumpin' sumpin'!

What I wouldn't give to be sipping a drink on a beach in Hawai'i right now! Apparently, shoveling snow once, twice, sometimes three times is a daily activity now, along with sweeping snow off my arbor vitaes. We bought a Christmas tree yesterday completely engulfed in frozen snow, didn't know what it looked like for several hours.... What is this strange land we've moved to?!

Love your soaps (and packaging!)

Did you get a photo of your multi-plane cutter? I looked for it, but couldn't find it

I have a single bar cutter.
EDIT: Woops, still waking up here. I first read that as multi bar cutter. Yes, I better take a picture so that a certain someone gets off my a--.
 
That is some cutter!
(Thanks for posting a picture ... I can see why you like it :thumbs:)
