In this video I share an easy sugar syrup recipe that can be made in a few minutes, stored in the fridge and added to your cold process or hot process soap recipes.
Sugar is a wonderful ingredient in soap making. It helps to boost the lather of all kinds of recipes and is especially useful in castile soap making and other soap recipes with high amounts of olive oil or other unsaturated oils that tend to have less lather.

I did the math on this ... I'm a chemist. There are 48 teaspoons in a cup. I made a simple syrup of 1 cup sugar (48 tsp) and 1/2 cup distilled water. It melted down and made 1 full cup of syrup, which is also 48 tsp. So the concentration is 1 tsp sugar per tsp of syrup. It's not more dilute than 1 tsp of straight sugar. It's a simple concentration, 1 tsp sugar per tsp of solution! So if your recipe calls for 1 tsp granulated sugar, use 1 tsp of solution and you've got it!

@@kathya739 Interesting question about sugar and trace. I made some soap yesterday using coconut, rice bran & castor oil with a water ratio of 1.5:1. Added 1tbsp sugar syrup, kaolin clay, oatmeal flour, indigo pigment, and I spatula stirred mainly to emulsify, stick blending for no more that about 30 seconds. Then once I added the 15g essential oils (peppermint/eucalyptus) last thing, & started stick blending, the 1000g batch seized up almost immediately, into a huge thick unmoveable ocean wave lifting out of my bowl. So this is what they mean by acceleration eh? In a crazy rush I grabbed a loaf mould (my 12 cavity mould was not gonna work), and scooped most of the soap batter in like a mad woman. Even before I put it in the warmed oven (CPOP) covered with a cardboard top, I saw ready a big central translucent gel phase rectangle covering most of the batch. Looked amazing, to see so quickly! And I’m sure there will be plenty of quirky air pockets to be found when unmoulding it later as I had only seconds to press the mass down. So, full of questions now - what caused that? The water discount, the aloe/water mix for the lye solution, the SUGAR SYRUP, the rice bran, the temperature (95/105f lye & oils)??? Trace was definitely powerfully speeded up for sure. I think I will ratio the water to lye back to 2:1 next time, and super fat at 5% instead of the 6% that I used. Sooooo much to learn. Got me a beautiful green soap loaf though, and an unexpected adventure and a half. Phew! 🤩✨

I am not trying to be rude and I’m asking for a good reason but why would we want to use a soap that’s made up of sugar if bacteria love sugar and if I had pimples or a scrape on my skin wouldn’t the soap promote a higher risk for infections? I feel that if I use this soap, I would need another soap to wash off the sugary sweet soap. If it only smelled sweet then that would make more sense to me.

It's a good question Diane. Basically what you are washing your face with is much more soap than sugar! Only a teeny amount is used in the whole recipe, and it all washes off as the soap cleans your face. Adding sugar makes it even more soapy!

Ha haha, we are in alignment! I made this sugar syrup for the first time 3 days ago, following a food recipe, to use for soap making. I used 200g white sugar to 240g filtered water, and simmered it until it thickened a little like runny honey, keeping its clear transparent colour - no caramelising, I tasted it with my finger, and it is as sweet as honey.. I put it into a small 250ml glass bottle and the fridge, and was advised to use it up in 1 month, though I guess this is for food use. Sugar syruping for soap is just a good idea - it means you can add it easily to the water for the Lye, or directly into the oils at trace. The way to go for introducing bubbles, and lather - and an excellent simple cheap additive for 100% olive oil Castile type creamy soaping. I have only been doing this 3 months and I’m now obsessed, wanna make some soap every 3 days. 🤪 🤩 ✨

I suppose you could also use golden syrup in soap recipes. I find mine crystallized as I don't use it quickly enough through baking. So using it in soaps is a good way of getting to use it up quicker before that happens.

Do you buy your golden syrup, or make your own? If bought one doesn't know what the ratio is? Would that make a difference?

Yes I think it would be nice, would add some colour to your soap though. It's more concentrated, so stick to 1-2% of oils.

Thanks dear for sharing this info 🙏💕 can I do this method with salt ? because I’m using sheep tallow & ghee in most of my soaps and they are little bit soft even if make them with hot process method 😅

Yes, however I'd be more inclined to make a brine solution for your lye water as I explain in this blog post www.ellyseveryday.com/ellys-everyday-blog/multi-batch-cold-process-soap-making-three-recipes I would also look at other aspects of your soap recipe before trying to improve the hardness with salt. Are you using too much water? Too many soft oils? Are you giving them a good 6 week cure time? I hope that helps :)

@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking thank you so much for blog post 🙏💓I’m sure its very helpful , I calculate my recipes in soap calc & saopee, in the calculation it gives me 40, super fat is 15%🫣 maybe this the problem? , the water is 36, & I await for 6 weeks, maybe because I live in hot weather 🤔 Saudi Arabia in summer reaches 46c and sometimes more . I will keep searching where is my mistake 😓, have a nice day dear god bless you 🍀🌷🌸

I'm not sure I'm understanding your figures correctly, but a 15% superfat is quite high, and perhaps your water amount too high as well?
