Teach Soap

If you want small molds to make a trial batch, go to your office store and get some of those tiny plastic boxes that are used for pins, pens or staples. They are rectangular and have straight sides.

Cupcake papers work ok too.....but you have to double them up. I like the small container idea. You're pretty smart Soapbuddy.....but don't tell anybody I said so.

Pray tell Soapbuddy, those little plastic things aren't exactly flexible. How do you extract the soap from them after it hardens? Also, do you grease them with vaseline or anything?

I'll try it. See my above comment. You're pretty smart. This time you can tell people I said so.

Also, do you grease the sides or bottom with anything? I'm all about reducing waste. If I can reuse these little buggers I'm all over it.

Non gelling gives the soap a much denser feel in my opinion. It does take longer for the cure for mine it is 6 weeks perhaps a tad more. Worth it though!
