DIY Limoncello Cold Process Soap - Bella Vita Collection | Bramble Berry

This sparkly and summery Limoncello Soap is a show-stopper! Fragranced with Italian Limoncello Fragrance Oil, it has a refreshing lemon scent. It behaves well in cold process with no discoloration, making it perfect for this swirly soap.
It's an advanced project, as it requires melt and pour embeds and a good understanding of cold process texture. For the embeds, we recommend using SFIC LCP Clear Melt And Pour Soap Base ("like cold process") to avoid glycerin dew.

We have a lot of beginning cold process recipes on our KZbin channel! This playlist has them all: kzbin.info/aero/PLr_YF9AaZRqgmR0C6z-CoHRwWBO4q3Ueb

[@ms.d6857]

This is just beautiful. I have a question can you link a good for beginners video here if you all have made one? When I watch the video you all already have the soap and lye done. I would like to watch one measured and the whole nine. Thank you!

[@bramble-berry]

You may find this video helpful! In particular, in the "Prep to Make Soap" section, we demonstrate mixing lye water. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iIrPqnmFe7dsmbssi=sEz3sXHvLs9nG7VL

[@ms.d6857]

@bramble-berry thank you so much, going to watch it now! I've made an account on the website so I'm sure soon I'll be purchasing.

[@rohinijai]

While buying titanium dioxide or micas, what should we opt for - oil soluble / water soluble?

[@bramble-berry]

You can mix Titanium Dioxide with either water or oil, the results are comparable with either method. We recommend choosing one based on your recipe and when you are adding it to your batch.

[@PrettyAliceNight]

So nice! When you say to cut the piping bag with a v shape- what does that mean? I don’t understand.

[@bramble-berry]

To make the leaf shape, we recommend cutting the tip of the piping bag in a v-shape. If you hold the piping bag facing you, you can cut 2 diagonal lines that meet in the middle, it'll look like a tiny triangle has been cut out when you're done.

[@RebeccaTremblay-bm9rw]

Would it be possible to shape the yellow balls into more of a lemon shape if you took them out of the mold a little sooner when they were still a bit soft and pliable? Or does that not work with glycerin soap?

[@bramble-berry]

We haven't tried it but we'd love to hear how it goes if you give it a try!

[@peace1970haileybury]

You could also buy a small thin lemon slice embed mold. I made a soap with some and it looks really pretty and would look super on this soap as well.

[@carolp5993]

What’s the best way to wrap CP soap? I know it doesn’t need plastic wrap like melt and pour. but I want to keep it sanitary and maintain the fragrance from escaping. Is shrink wrap recommended once fully cured or are small window boxed better? I don’t want soap to mold either if it’s shrink wrapped. I thought about storing in Tupperware until sold and shrink wrap as I go. Please help Thanks

[@bramble-berry]

You can shrink wrap cold process soap but you will want to leave the ends open to allow it to breath. It should not be fully enclosed.

[@bjg4002]

Can we use kaolin clay to lighten the mixture??

[@bramble-berry]

Yes you can

[@gingin6246]

Anne Marie. Im wanting to make a Australian Lemon myrtle soap with olive oil, shea butter and coconut oil. 1kg in total. How much lemon myrtle in % should i add ? Thanks 😊

[@bramble-berry]

Hi! That sounds lovely, our fragrance calculator is perfect for determining fragrance usage rates. Our fragrance calculator is available here: www.brambleberry.com/calculator?calcType=fragrance

[@rohinijai]

Do u initially mix mica with oil or water?

[@bramble-berry]

For melt and pour soap, we like to mix 1 teaspoon with 1 tablespoon of 99 percent isopropyl alcohol. For cold process, we like to mix 1 teaspoon with 1 tablespoon of lightweight oil.

[@bjg4002]

Hey there what is the titanium Dioxide for and can you omit it??

[@bramble-berry]

Titanium dioxide is a colorant to make the soap white, it's optional.

[@pilar4ever1111111111]

What is quick mix?

[@bramble-berry]

Our Quick Mixes are bags of premixed oils designed to make soap-making easier for you. All you have to do is melt and measure them - no need to worry about buying individual oils or formulating a recipe. We have a wonderful article with more information about our Quick Mixes here: www.brambleberry.com/ingredient-information/bases/art0027-all-about-quick-mixes.html

[@gingin6246]

What do you call the oils mixture which you sell ? What's the largest size? Do you ship to Australia? And do youhave a wholesale price for business? Thanks. Gina

[@bramble-berry]

They are called quick mixes and we sell them in 33oz, 54oz, and 35lb. We do ship to Australia and currently do not offer wholesale pricing.

[@gingin6246]

​@@bramble-berryok. Thank you

[@thatasiangirl2549]

Why my soap is not harden after 3 days of making ?

[@bramble-berry]

Olive oil heavy soap can take a bit longer to harden, we love to add sodium lactate to this recipe to help it harden quickly. If it isn't ready to come out of the mold, you'll want to give it another day to harden some more before unmolding.

[@kasie680]

I put mine in the freezer if I’m impatient to unmould, it also stops marks and bangs on your loaf, then cut when it’s thawed 😊

[@AmberCox85]

When using mica, shouldn’t you have a protective mask on? It can really damage your lungs

[@bramble-berry]

As long as it is not going airborne there should not be an issue with damage due to inhalation. We recommend scooping the mica pigment into your mixing containers, and then dispersing in oil before adding to your soap to prevent any mica poofs!

[@silleomar]

Very disappointed, yo do y make anything by scratch . We need to se the oils and measurement or the ounces or grams of the oils, I wish you teach again like in the beginning! 😊

[@bramble-berry]

This project uses our quick mix blend, which is available already mixed on our website. You can create it at home yourself by using our quick mix guide: www.brambleberry.com/ingredient-information/bases/art0027-all-about-quick-mixes.html
