I absolutely love Cocoa Powder in soap. I have a FO called Godiva Chocolate that I use whenever I'm feeling to colour with Cocoa Powder. This soap came out absolutely gorgeous. Thanks for sharing the video, tips and tricks.
The ship was beyond beautiful, but watching you make it is even more addicting 😍. I'm so inspired to make a soap with cocoa now. Your bar looked like a slice of cake.
@@SDub526 thank you and so happy this inspired you, cocoa powder can be a beautiful color. Depending where you buy it, the color might be a little different in color. This bag I purchased from Costco about a year away. It gives an all most reddish brown look. You can use any cocoa powder. Once they fully cure, the color gets much darker.
Thanks for the video! I appreciate the tip to blend just until you don’t see oil floating on top, then divide batter. I also learned that cocoa powder doesn’t speed up trace. I struggled with trying to add colors (specifically clays) to my soap because it seemed they all clunked up immediately, but your video reminded me that the coffee water and cocoa powder didn’t have any problems! I look forward to learning more from you. I’m not sure I understood how the stamping worked.
@@bekesize I’m so happy you learned a few things, I have never really used clays, but I have heard some may speed up trace. Also using a slow moving recipe helps. This batch I didn’t use lard, but adding lard is inexpensive and makes a nice slow recipe. If you need any help with a recipe just let me know. As far as the stamp goes, I will make a single slow video of that. Thanks for watching.
BEAUTIFUL

How much lye did you use
@@stacydee815 I’m using a water lye 1.95:1 ratio.
@WildPlantanica is that the same as sodium hydroxide ?
You can blend out the ricing with the stick blender.
@@learning2no thank you, yes I got most of it. This is new for me, I’m glad it didn’t discolor, but it might over cure time.?
I love your video. Where did you get your dear stamp?
@@harrietholland thank you. I made it , I need to start making stamps. They just take so long to engrave.
I would buy the deer stamp when you have one for sale. ❤
Me too
I like your video and soap ^ _ ^
I would say those white specks are from the rice flour not dissolved, just my two cents.
