So, about that big Mardi Gras soap plan…
The results were actually nice. The process and first round complete failure were the exact opposite of nice. In fact, round one was a pure mess that would be best left undocumented. Yes’ it was that ugly. Round two though – cute and exactly the way I had envisioned. All in all my King Cake Soap came out pretty sweet – in the end. Was it worth doing more often? I say no, no, no.
Here’s a few pics of the results of the lovely final batch. When I can stand the humiliation – I’ll show ya just how gawd awful it got.
It came out surprisingly like it’s namesake with scents of real cinnamon, vanilla, pastry and a tad bit of anise. Customers really seemed to like it so – who knows, maybe we make more next year.
With Soap Love,
Carrie
