Instructions:
Add ¼ teaspoon Swiss Chocolate Mica to a small heat safe vessel along with a small piece of soap.
This is how much soap base to melt for the centres of four daisies - it takes only a few seconds to melt - don't let it boil.
Stir the Swiss Chocolate Mica until dispersed well.
If there are any dry spots a quick spritz of alcohol with disperse them.
Take the pipette with the tip cut off and use it to fill the two centre sections of the moulds.
Place 150g of diced soap base into the small jug and place into the microwave
Heat in bursts of 30 seconds or less until the soap has melted and is liquid
Add approximately ¼ teaspoon Pink Raspberry Mica in the clear base and stir
If there are any spots of mica, give them a quick spritz of Isopropyl Alcohol to dissipate
Now add up to 1 - 2g/ml Fragrance and
2g/ml (approximately ½ teaspoon) Infused Calendula Oil to the jug and stir well
Spritz the Chocolate coloured soap with Isopropyl Alcohol (to ensure they unmould well).
Now it's time to pour!
As the centres are so thin, avoid pouring the hot soap onto the set Chocolate colour soap or it will melt.
I fill these generously sized moulds about two thirds full.
Repeat this with the Jaffa Cake Mica batch (if making more than one colour)
All them to set completely before unmoulding.
Wrap after unmoulding as usual.
