Can fully cured CP soap be used as imbeds? Say I wanted to slice up fully cured soap or grate it and add it to fresh soap - similar to what is done in this soap (NOT MY SOAP - thanks lullee.com and indulgy.com for illustrating what I mean):

See the dark blue bits in this soap - could those have come from fully cured soap that has been chopped/grated? All those curli-cue shavings I see embedded into the tops of soap - can those be fully cured soap?

In other words: does fully cured soap "stick" to new CP soap as long as its put into fresh batter?

I've used fully cured soap shreds in new soap with no problem. Not sure how large chunks of fully cured soap would do, tho.

I've done it and it worked out fine.

The shreds in my rainbow confetti were from a soap that is ~6 months old. :mrgreen:
