PEACH MELBA SOAP

(Submitted to Soap Wizards by Ela Heyn)

MATERIALS:

• Opaque and clear soap base (I use molding soap base)
• Peach and raspberry Fragrance Oils
• Colorant (Yellow, red and bit of blue)
• Disposable plastic water bottle, the type with an indentation in the middle

TECHNIQUE:

1. Melt some white soap base, and scent it with the peach fragrance oil (FO). Color it with a bit of yellow and a couple of touches of red, to make a nice peach color.

2. Cut the bottom off the disposable plastic water bottle; this will be your soap mold.

3. Pour peach soap base into the bottom of the water bottle to fill it. Let it set up.

4. Unmold peach soap, and set it down, indentation side up. Now heat some clear soap base, scent with raspberry, and color it with red and just a TOUCH of blue. (The TOUCH of blue will make the red appear darker).

5. Pour raspberry soap base into the indentation on the peach soap, allowing it to fill the indentation and run down the sides. Peach melba soap!

NOTE: If you want, you can even heat a bit of white soap base in a measuring cup, beat it HARD with a hand whisk, and add it to the top of the peach melba for "whipped cream".

If you are looking for other recipes, check out some of the links in the side bar or check in my archive. There are alot of recipes in both places. I am always looking for new recipes to post on my blog, so please return in the future.
