Special Ingredients

2 teaspoons sodium lactate, 2 teaspoons raspberry mica, 1 teaspoon poppy seeds, 1 oz. champagne fragrance oil, 1.25 watermelon fragrance oil, .25 oz. passionfruit rose fragrance oil.

Recipe

Add the sodium lactate to the cooled lye water mixture. Add the lye water to the oils and bring to a trace. Stir in the colorants and fragrance oil. At a medium trace hand stir in the poppy seeds. Pour into mold. Cut the soap bars and let cure for 4 weeks before using.

Batch Notes

This soap smells delicious. The soap came out a bit soft, but eventually hardened up after about 2 weeks. Probably the water could have been slightly discounted or a little less superfatting to balance the large amount of fragrance oils added.
