Active Time30 minutes
Additional Time4 hours
Total Time4 hours 30 minutes
Yield: 3 soap bars
Cost: $2.00

Equipment

  • 2 4 cup measuring cups microwave-safe
  • 1 4-inch soap mold
  • 2 wooden craft sticks for stirring
  • Spray bottle with rubbing alcohol (optional)
  • Wavy soap cutter (optional) (but makes really cool soap bars)

Materials

  • 1 lb goat’s milk melt and pour soap base
  • 1 Tablespoon powdered honey

Instructions

  • Cut the goat’s milk melt and pour soap base into 1-inch cubes. Divide the soap cubes evenly between the two microwave-safe measuring cups.
  • Place one measuring cup with the soap cubes in the microwave and heat on high for 30-second intervals, stirring between each heat session. Continue this process until the soap base is fully melted and smooth. Repeat the same process with the other measuring cup containing the remaining soap cubes.
  • Add one tablespoon of powdered honey to one of the measuring cups. Stir well to incorporate the honey into the soap base, ensuring no lumps.
  • Pour a small amount of the plain soap base into the mold, just enough to cover the bottom. Allow it to set for about 45 seconds or until it thickens slightly. 
  • Next, pour some honey soap base into the mold, covering the plain soap base. Allow it to set for another 45 seconds. Continue alternating between pouring the plain and honey soap bases into the mold, allowing each layer to set for 45 seconds before pouring the next.
  • Lightly spray the top of the soap with rubbing alcohol. 
  • Set the mold aside in a cool, dry place for about 4 hours. Allow the soap to set and harden fully.
  • Release soap from the mold, you can use a wavy soap cutter or a sharp knife to cut it into 1-inch bars.

Notes

If the soap bases start to thicken too much while pouring, you may need to reheat them in the microwave for 10-second intervals to maintain a pourable consistency.
