This is my 2nd go at making soap with goat's milk.
My first bars were for dh and I used a simple rectangular silicone mold and scented them with spearmint and eucalyptus. I made them last week.
These are for my dd & me and are scented with white tea & ginger from BB and I used a pretty silicone flower mold. I didn't add any colorant to either batch. I used powdered goat's milk, whisked into my oils prior to adding the lye/water.

I'm excited for them to cure so I can try them and see how they differ from my regular recipe.

Very nice! What did you think of the white tea and ginger fragrance? I just tried it and loved it in the bottle but not sure I am loving it in the soap. Did you get from Nurture Soap?

Mine is from Brambleberry. I like it so far :) both in the bottle and in the soap .
My favorite scent, in the past two years of soap making, is still lemon verbena. I just haven't found anything I like as much.
But I do love trying out lots of new fragrances :) My husband's favorite is camp fire. Nothing has come close for him so far (although he did like the smell of the spearmint/eucalyptus)
 
Very nice creamy looking soaps.

I also mix my powdered gm in with my oils, it just mixes in better than trying to mix it with other liquids. It can also be mixed into a slurry with some of the batch oil if a person is afraid of getting it all dissolved.

I love the B&B White Tea and Ginger, but like it much better in leave on products. It changes some in soap and proved to be a slow seller, while in lotions and balms it is a good seller. Soap is just hard on fragrances, so I would recommend trying a small batch, if you do not like it, save it for leave on.

Thank you. Great advice. I generally soap in small l lb batches, because I'm only soaping for me and my family. The fragrances I love, I've begun soaping in 3 lb batches.

They look so creamy @JanelleTrebuna! :)
Thank you. I'm excited. I hope they are creamy :)

I don’t like it. It’s very “tea”. But others do. See the reviews in our fragrance review chart.

Try this link it doesn’t work on a mobile (cell phone) but it should work on a computer:
