SO HOW'D IT GO?
Very cool recipe.
I think I'll divide the recipe before adding the oils and then add to each half so I can get two different smelling versions.
Yabbitgirl,
Do these fizz? Like bath bombs?
I like the fizzing :)
I don't think so...no vinegar or other acid...mine didn't anyway. BTW that should be 2 cm, not 1. 1 inch equals 2 cm and a bit.
i made these for x mas gifts and were really fun!i made about 10 different smell and colors. I added things like lavender petals to make them all pretty.
they dont fizz. i made some fizzy ones from the garden of vegan cookbook.
they were harder to shape. and difficult.
these ones were super simple and just as good.
