Floapies!

*waves* Hey y'all!! Hope this finds everyone doing great! I have been busy soaping away, and I have embarked on another adventure with Floapies! Ok so I know that's a weird name but let me explain. You know how when you're in the tub taking a nice long luxurious bubble bath...and you drop the soap so you have to hunt around for it? Well when you drop a this particular soap it floats so your not hunting around for it..hence the name "Floapies". ;) In order to make Floapies you have to use a mixer and whip air into the soap batter. 

For your listening pleasure while you peruse the pictures of my Floapie adventure, with a special shout out to Greta. (lol)

 

 

Solid and Liquid Oils before whipping them.

After whipping the solid and liquid oils. I realized later on that I should have waited to add the liquid oil while I was whipping the solid oils. It would have made bigger fluffier peaks. You live and learn though. Next time!

After slowly adding the chilled lye I "whip it good!" *does the dance and realizes she is without the red hat* Anyhow...back to the lye , it has to be chilled lye. I know it may sound weird, but warm lye will melt the solid oils. 

It looks almost like frosting doesn't it? It would have been fluffier if I would have did what I mentioned earlier. 

I separated this into two parts and colored one a teal color. (I know, surprise surprise!)

While you probably cannot see this very well, the teal turned into a pastel teal as a result of how white the soap batter is.

So I spooned it in my mold and did a slight swirl with it with the pastel teal and the white.

They look like little cupcakes don't they?

I had extra soap batter so I slapped it in one of my one pound molds and swirled it together.

Wallah! We have Floapies! Yayyy!

Well, I hope you enjoyed the music along with my latest adventure! I have a ton of stuffs to do before I can call it a night! Check back soon y'all!
