i got over whelmed and put 1 tsp in my 8 oz soap (7% superfat). I wonder how much is “too much” in TD. the batter turned out to be the white that i want it to be though.

I don't know how much is too much but I would say not to use more than you did this time.
I generally only need 1/2-1 tsp ppo but my recipe is pretty light to begin with.

In my opinion that is about the right amount for 8 oz, so not to worry. Unless your soap is to dry and cracking you are good to go. To much TD can cause your soap to be dry and/or accelerate trace.

Gosh that's so pretty. Fingers crossed for you- hopefully you post pics after you cut it

Would this be the oil soluble? I use the water dispersible.
