Soap In The Raw

Soap porn in the raw.  Yes!  It's true, I have a love relationship with raw soap.  It is so beautiful in it's own dessert-pudding-like way.  The final product is even more exciting, but when one finally takes their raw soap creation and puts in in a mold to become soap, it leads to me to a happy place of raw.

Photos For The New Cubano - Now Curing

Cubano, First cut, just exposed to air. Looks all caramel-like. It's too bad it doesn't get to stay like that, but it gets darker the longer it's exposed to the air.


This is a picture of the regular sized bar and the jumbo which is the one I cut samples from or chop up for my own shower.

Cubano - I am enjoying the strange maze/granite-like designs going on in there.

I improved the scent: now with thick rich French cocoa absolute, Brazilian pressed coffee oil, instead of the fragrance oils and I have added a few drops of patchouli oil to add a bit of depth. Can't smell the patchouli essential oil, but the depth its created is there.

I am happy with it.

Curing. Will be ready for sale: My BIRTHDAY: July 11th!!
