Hello all! I made a big batch of Zany’s No-Slime Castille Soap last night and unmolded it today. I noticed that the color of the bars made using a wooden mold are noticeably darker than the bars made with a silicon mold (see picture). It was all made in one batch, all poured at the same time. No differences in process at all. Any idea why this happened? No problems with the soaps, just curious why they are different and if there will be any longer term implications.
Thanks,

Sam

My guess would be that the wooden mould kept the warmth longer than the silicone one, so one is gelled and the other is not.
