Checked on the soap this morning.  The ones in the oven have all cooled down.  They seem pretty soft, I could press my finger into it if I put some pressure.  And they seem a bit oily.  This is interesting because the last time I made a bastile it was hard by the next day; so much so that I had to put a little weight into cutting the bars.  But then again last time I used light olive oil and a water lye mixture.  This time it was pomace olive oil and half and half milk/cream lye mixture.  Oh this time I also had to soap cool because of the cream/milk.  Last time I put in very warm lye water into warmed up oil.  I'll cut the bars when I get home this evening and hopefully the oil will absorb back into the bar during curing/drying.  These are bastile so I'm in for a LONG wait before they get really nice to use. 

I'm really curious to see how the confetti soap comes out.  My husband says it looks like vomit in the milk carton right now.  Yay.    I put more soap trimmings than olive oil in this soap, so it's full of confetti, not just a light smattering of bits in a white soap.  Also pomace olive oil comes out a little yellow in color so I may be wishing I whitened it up with some titanium dioxide.  Then again, maybe it will be just great looking!  The fragrance seems to be nice a nice mix of everything, at least it's not offensive to me.  I don't know if this will require as much curing/drying time as regular bastile because most of it is trimmings that have already gone through some curing.  Also the trimmings are not bastile so maybe it won't take as long. 

Oh, I pulled away some of the bubble wrap that I had put around the soap with honey and it looks pretty cool!
