Youre a peach! Thanks

You can get that mold and Joann's or Michaels too, in a loaf or individual bars. Only $2.49 too. I saw them there yesterday.

I have that mold (from tony's) and although I really like the way it looks, I have to tell ya, I don't really care for it while USING it, it's awkward to hold (it's pretty big) and I like to roll my soap around in my hands to get it nice and lathery, and this shape makes it hard.

Just my two cents.

I bought a mold from WSP that is similar to that. I agree that I don't care for it. The bars are awkward to hold.

Landa,

I gotta ask... Who made the soap and what type is it? It looks wonderful!!

looks like oatmeal soap to me. As a matter of fact, it looks almost just like the M&P oatmeal base I just got from the SFIC co-op!

a friend of mine(beth) from livejournal made it. It is wheat germ, milk and honey and it is an HP soap.

I have mold like that and I got it at Pat Catan's. I think it was $1.99

I do not insulate and cover. The soap process happens even if it does not gel. If the soap gels when you are using an individual mold you will have a heck of a time getting it out without freezing it.

Jennifer, do you like those? Tony's was out of stock for a long time and I see they finally have them again.

THANKS!

So, to prevent gel, do you put them in the frig to keep them cool? I have this mold but haven't used it yet.

[mountainmadness]

When I use an individual mold I make the soap as usual but just at a lower temp. to avoid the gel stage. I use room temp lye and pour into oil temps at 100F. I just put the molds on my soap counter, let them sit for 24 hrs. and pop out to dry.

Thanks! I will try this one after I try my upland.
