BlackCrow Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Hi Everyone,I just finished making Bunny's Bath Melts. I had seen the recipe posted on here and read all the rave reviews about them. I followed the recipe to the "T" only I used refined cocoa butter and added FO to it for scenting. My question is, once I had added the citric acid....is it supposed to really thicken up like that?? The recipe said to pour into the candy mold cups but I had to scoop it out and into the molds. Also, one I had added the citric acid it felt gritty....is this normal??? I have never made bath melts before and was just wondering if this was the way it was supposed to look and feel???Thank you for any help and input on this.

dpowell Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 The one time we tried them that is how they came out. It was almost like brownie batter once the citric was added. They are nice, but they make a mess of your tub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CareBear Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 pour is a bit misleading - it's like sludge... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AkainePSP Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 I spooned mine into the molds. I made ones that were 1 oz. and 1/2 oz. I have to agree though 1/2 oz. is perfect size it doesn't leave the tub an oily mess.Kelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eugenia Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 I can answer this one from experience. The mixture was too warm when you added the citric. Let it cool more and you will see a world of difference.After everything is completely mixed and molds are ready, cool until pot is just warm to the touch, but still liquid. Add citric acid and stir like mad! I can actually pour these. I use a small creamer pitcher and refill as I go.e Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
