Making Fizzies the Riverlea Soap way–an actual Tutorial

     

You will need:-

• Mould – I used a measuring cups – available from any baking shop
• 3ml Fragrance Oil – I used Cucumber & Bergamot
• No Colour
• 1000g Bicarbonate of Soda
• 500g Citric acid
• 40ml Coconut oil
• water – the amount you need will depend on the amount of moisture in the air. Less is more so add it slowly
• Bowl, scale, spoon, pipette and a fly press(optional)

To Make:-

• Add dry ingredients to your bowl and mix
• Add melted coconut oil into fragrance oil, and then add to dry mix
• Mix until squeezed mix retains shape – a little like moist beach sand
• Add a little water to assist
• Using the 2 measuring cups, scoop the mixture and overfill
• Press cups together and clean join and place under the fly press plate. Pull the lever down hard but not too hard so as to break the cups
• Leave to stand for 30 – 60 minutes
• Gently remove mould and release – tap with a spoon to help release if they stick
