Hi all. I want to try some intricate pours that will require a very thin batter than *stays thin*. I've already resigned myself to working without an FO, just in case, but I'm wondering your favourite recipes for when you want something thin and slow. 100% lard? I had quite a bit of success with this recipe, but after 7 loaves of it, I'm ready to try something different.
Any faves?

(and also, I probably WILL add fragrance, it'll be hard not to. but i will DEFINITELY read reviews first! I always think I do, and then the pudding in my bowl makes it very clear that I did not...)
I do 40% Lard, 40% Olive, 10% Coconut, 10% Cocoa, 5% Castor. I made these tall and skinny shimmy bars with this recipe. I use peppermint essential oil which slows trace also.

Oh also, I discount my water - I use a 2:1 ratio, and I add 1 teaspoon sugar, and 1 tsp salt to the lye water dissolved before I add the lye. I also add 1 inch silk fiber to all my soap.
