This one has quickly been becoming a best-seller for me. Coconut, palm and castor oil, along with some coffee butter. The top decoration is clear melt and pour with some coloring. I used Gevalia coffee as the base liquid instead of water. I scented it lightly with a mix of coffee (obviously) and Chocolate Espresso (which I am in love with and might just buy a freaking pound of next time).

I'm happy I managed a pencil line of coffee in it. I did not realize I would need a color stabilizer-hadn't been aware of the vanillin in the espresso scent-so the next batch will look quite different, lol.
 
It really does :D I sold one to a friend out of state and he got ahold of me on Skype to rave my ear off about how awesome it smells and feels, lol. Definitely making more.
 
oooh and aaahhhh! This looks so yummy and I love the heart embeds! I need to get back into putting embeds on top, I miss doing that. I adore the chocolate espresso scent, I need to buy more too!
 
Yep, got the chocolate espresso from BB. It discolors, though, so prepare for that.
 
Yummo! Looks great I can just smell it now, my two favourite things coffe & chocolate. I'm gonna have to try this scent.

You won't regret it! I blended Black Coffee FO from saveonscents and the chocolate espresso and neither I nor any of my coffee-loving pals can shut up about how awesome it is
 
Oh I like this one a lot. I love the dark colors. I've never tried adding melt n pour to anything, tricks to that? I'm a cold processor.
 
That looks like chocolate. I swear I'm about to send my
Lye back and invest in baking goods instead if all this food-soap keeps getting posted!

I do hot process, which is really only a little bit different.

Just make some melt and pour, and cut out shapes once it's dry (cookie cutters or whatever). To do the curls, I ran a veggie peeler down the side of a finished block of MP. Once your soap has set a bit (maybe an hour? where it's still liquidy but very, very thick), pop your little cutouts on top. You could probably do the sprinkles right away, depending on trace.
 
YUUMMMMMMM! I like the idea of sticking little M&P goodies in the top of the soap. I bought some silicone chocolate molds with happy faces and little piggies. Yours are very creative with the sort of smush to the top layer and soap shavings too. I would totally eat this soap.
 
This would go well with my afternoon cup of tea... I literary want to eat it! So good!
