Soap crumble and crack

[Jbarrett]

I used a soap recipie of olive oil, coconut oil, palm kernal oil and shea.

For scents I used orange essential oil, lemongrass essential oil and a couple drops of clove.

The scent is beautiful but the bars crumbled around the edges then cracked.

Any ideas what caused this?

You will need to post your whole recipe and method of soaping to get an accurate feedback of possible problems.
