I am looking for a CP recipe that has very little Olive Oil and lots of coconut oil and comes out white. Any one want to share a recipe? I have one that I have used for years but it has lots of Olive Oil and wanting to change it to coconut, palm and mango butter. It could have a bit of olive oil.

:sad2:I have been using the same recipe for 5 years for my cp soap, and this week the first 2 batches were great and the next 10 I can hardley get to a thin trace? I am ready to cry as I am pouring for a store and not my self. The only thing that has changed as far as I can tell is my stick blender broke and now I have been trying to use a mixer with 2 beaters. I am wondering if this could be the problem? I have tried 2 days of everything from cleaning to new scale new thermometers? Any one have any ideas? Bev
