October 2017 | Spiced Pumpkin | KCK Soapery


Although the weather is still undecided, we are officially in the Autumn season. This batch is scented with "Spiced Pumpkin", described as fall spices blended with amber.

My daughter said "it smells sooooo yummy".


Coconut oil, Olive oil, Rice Bran oil, Palm oil, Mango butter, and Castor oil.  


Colors used were titanium dioxide for the white and I mixed brown, red and yellow for the pumpkin color.  The fragrance oil contains vanillin so the soap will eventually morph to more brown in color.  The white batter was not scented so it will stay white.


Divided the soap batter into two, white for piping and red brown for the main soap.  


Poured a layer of pumpkin.


Sifted a layer of Hershey's cocoa powder.


Covered the cocoa powder with another layer of pumpkin then sifted a layer of activated charcoal.


Black activated charcoal layer.


Covered the black with another layer of pumpkin.


Piped middle line of white.  


Second line of piped white.


Third line.


Piped the rest of the white batter.


Out of the mold.  Showing the activated charcoal and cocoa powder line.


I love how the piped white soap batter behaved and stayed where they should be.


Hope you enjoy these spiced pumpkin soap.

Thank you for dropping by!
