angiestaff Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Have you seen the solid bubble bath cupcakes? Does any one have a idea on what they would use for icing these things?http://www.opensundaes.com/catalogue/catalog/index.php?cPath=1I have seen these done as bath bombs and bubble bars and I have that down pat but would love to make some as cupcakes and have cute icing but my recipes seem to dry to pipe with a decorators bag, any ideas will help.I think this will be a hit with my little one (8dd) HATES to take a bath and I have been making bombs and bubble bars and she is now sometimes taking 2 baths in 1 day, so now I basicly am making at least 1 bath product a day because she wants to try the "newest thing" TIAAngiestaff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scentsme Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 I have no clue & can't help, but must say: those are the cutest things I ever did see in a bath & body product! Wow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brenda Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Might it be whipped soap? I know you are supposed to be able to pipe that!http://home.exetel.com.au/lozniz/Whipped/Make the bubble bath bar in a miniture muffin tin and pipe the whipped soap on top?

mappam Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Because they are all exactly the same shape I would think it is a "Flexi-Mold" (silicone) that is used?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Livelovebath Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 ok I am not going to be very helpful... but those are soooo cute...I make some melt and pour cupcake soaps... they are like a two pack of soap when you go to use it... the top is seperate from the bottom... This website has got me thinking... I need more backing soda but I want to play with my tub truffle recipe to see what I can come up with... I will keep you posted should I find some time!!

bravo5 Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 I saw a demo at the '05 Chicago soapmaker's conference using "frosting soap" that's sold here:https://www.oakcourtcreations.com/ProductCart/pc/viewCat_h.asp?idCategory=12It was pretty cool. I still haven't gotten around to trying theirs, or making my own- too many other things to try!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gloworm Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Those are adorable but is that the price for one bubble bar?? WOW. Wish I could get prices like that where I live.Glo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angiestaff Posted July 27, 2006 Author Share Posted July 27, 2006 Ok they have these as solid bath oil cupcakes and they look the same as the bubble bath cupcakes-I never thought of a silicone mold- I have considered using some cocoa butter to ice them with but I think it will work against the bubbles. They do have some real cute items but kinda pricey, my dd will have to settle for "hand iced" instead of "bakery iced" looking cupcakes I guess.Another place that has some real cute stuff is Dlishus.com . Seems like they dip some of the bath bombs in cocoa butter and decorate real cute.Angiestaff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladysj Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 I don't see why you couldn't use just the regular mini cupcake molds. I also remember reading that you can whip just regular M&P soap. You just have to work quickly with it is all. Those are very cute. I think I'm going to have to experiment with these this weekend lol I can't tell though if the cupcake part is hollow or solid. I wonder if you could make them hollow like a hurricane shell and them fill with your piped soap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carol M Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 http://www.soapsilly.com/cupcakes.htmHere's another version of that idea that Johanna over at the Whisk does. No idea what the top is like, but I remember reading her say that she hates making them, because the top is such a pain to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokymountainraine Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 It's icing. No big huge drama to make. These people at least do proper ingredient listing on theirs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carol M Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 It does look like icing on top, but seems to me they would have to be using something that will set up pretty firm. Otherwise, they'd never hold up to packaging and shipping without getting messed up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maryann Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 I saw silicone cupcake holders in the cake section at Michaels today... wish I would have grab them as I tried making the cake part tonight w/ paper cupcake holders and it didn't work that great. I'm going to try whipped soap as my "frosting". They look so cute... thanks for sharing the idea !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darci Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Have you seen the solid bubble bath cupcakes? Does any one have a idea on what they would use for icing these things?did you check out the ingredients? looks like she made a meringue with water, meringue powder, sugar and coloring. guess that would dissolve quickly in the bath - but I'd think it might be sticky. I like the whipped soap idea better. just a bit on top could almost be a one-use soap... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maryann Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 I think most definately, as they were stiff for packing the bomb nice and tight. Looks like we both better take another trip back to Michaels !Here's what mine looks like. My son's going to test it at the end of this week (I know I should give the whipped soap another week but he's chomping at the bit to use it). I think if I try it again I'll frosting them at a regular height, I like the idea dari gave as a one time use (I was going for a few times).
