Teach Soap

Oh oh. I (belatedly) found out that a CPOP cure with silicon molds isn't recommended. My soap is covered in small bubbles with a slight volcano effect in the center of some of them (individual heart bars). The sides have the look of a sponge (though the texture is hard enough for bars to hold together. Is this issue just cosmetic? Are the bars safe to use (assuming ph is fine)?

I do CPOP with silicone molds with no problems. It sounds like your soap tried to overheat. If the soap doesn't zap and you superfatted, I'd say the soap will be fine.

Thanks, Soap Buddy - that's what I had figured as well (they sure look a bit nutty, though)
