My first successful swirled loaf!

[KiwiMoose]

I made a coffee, cream and cinnamon loaf, and used a hanger to swirl.
First layer: coloured with a dessertspoon of cinnamon powder and bronze mica
Second layer: colour is natural occurring using brewed coffee as my water content
Third layer: as the second, but added some TD to whiten it.
FOs: Iced coffee and whipped vanilla buttercream.

I think the main lesson learned is not to be afraid to swirl more.

Everyone seems to think I should eat it??? Lol, I do love my food - maybe that’s why they are all a bit foodie themed.
I’ve wrapped up all my first two batches for family and friends for Christmas. They’re all good to go (little do they know yet they’ll be asked to report back on the quality of the soap!)
That leaves two free spaces in my bookshelf for some more batches. I’m thinking I might do peach nectar and chamomile tea next (first a coffee loaf, then a tea loaf- lol).
My DH makes his own kombucha... I’m sure I can make soap outta that too!

For the custard sosp u will likely need to experiment with cream soap. I’ve been wanting to make a squeezable shaving cream soap myself.

This is beautiful and I bet the smell is incredible. I LOVE Cinnamon, and love the FO blended with others in soap - same for coffee.

Beautiful Soap, Well done.
