June 2014 | First Pencil Line using Cocoa Powder | KCK Soapery


 

I am pretty happy with the result of the cocoa powder pencil line.  I was not sure about the amount I was spreading but I am definitely glad the powder is visible and made a line albeit a bit crooked.
 
 
 
Colors used were deep purple, stained glass yellow, woodland green and titanium dioxide.  Fragranced with wildflower honey and lavender.  The hubby said it smelled fresh with a hint of cinnamon, cloves and baby powder.  Ingredients were my usual Coconut oil, Olive oil, Rice Bran oil, Palm oil, Mango butter, Castor oil.  I also oven processed this batch.
 
 
My mom and I did a drop swirl layer and spread it with cocoa powder and then did another layer of drop swirl and another layer of cocoa powder.  We cut the loaf using a wide kitchen knife with the help of the mitre box to keep a consistent thickness of the bars.  This batch is the first soap loaf I did not use the crinkle soap cutter.  I though it might be too much with the drop swirl and the pencil line to also have a crinkle cut.  Hope you guys will like it.  My ten year old said he is finally proud of my soap. 
 
 
Happy Soaping!
