Success! Slice pics of grapefruit poppy

[nframe]

Follow-up to my post about finally getting the courage to soap ... my panicked pouring gave me some cool dribby-drobby insides. And since it appears it didn't gel, it's very creamy, like sherbet. The grapefruit-lilac smell seems to be sticking so far as well. Yurm. (Sidebar: NDA should not call this smell grapefruit, it's pretty floral.)

Next on my wish list is a miter box...

What beautiful soap! How did you get that peach colour on the bottom?

The peach color is just a low dose of annatto-infused sweet almond oil.

Thank you for that. I have some annatto-infused sunflower oil. I assume that it would work too. However, in the past, when I have used it it coloured the soap a pale yellow colour (not peach!). It was a pretty shade of yellow though but it was not peach...

Huh! Maybe the shea made my base batter color warm toned? It is a very yellowy peach IRL.
