Marmalade Soap
Ingredients
2 3/4 cups (400g)grated glycerin soap
orange coloring (can use mace powder (2tsp/10ml) mixed with (4 T/60ml) of veg. oil)
1 teaspoon/5 ml sweet orange essential oil
Pinch each of dried marigold or chamomile flowers and pinch of dried orange zest
Instructions
Melt glycerin soap over low heat in double boiler. Add color as melting nears completion and turn off heat. Stir in essential oil. Pour into molds. Mix in flowers and zest with a toothpick as soap cools in the mold.
This soap has a nice fragrance and interesting look. As with all glycerin soaps, wrap tightly as the glycerin will attract moisture from the air.
