Such a cool (& hilarious) colour morph! I think they look so cute, love the twirls, they look really hot cocoa-y.😂

The top makes the soap I love it

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Thank you!

[@lizgonzalez3616]

I LOVE THAT SECOND PATTERN!!!!! In my opinion it resembles a womans face with beautiful big slanted eyes. Lovely soap

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Oh thank you!

[@veronicaaguilar1219]

The look like Grey color ,thank you

[@DawnOrganics]

These are delightful bars, very nice and cute. I bet the scent is mouth watering 😍

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Thank you! They do smell YUMMY

[@sherrymartindale8582]

Adorable 😍 Don’t you love color morphs!? Lol! That was a good one!!

[@EllenRuthSoap]

It was probably the funniest morph I've ever had🤣

I said OMG right out loud at the screen with that GREEN!!!! 😱😱 The end result is gorgeous, and scent probably delicious. Beautiful soap ⭐️

[@EllenRuthSoap]

It was hands down the funniest color morph I've had 🤣❣️

[@angeliquechurilla121]

@@EllenRuthSoap hi Ellen! So did you just take the weight of the oils and for each scent just use the usage rate for half and half or what. I really like to blend fragrance oils usually only two. Let me know thanks 😊

[@EllenRuthSoap]

@@angeliquechurilla121 yes, I used the usage rate for each color 😉

[@angeliquechurilla121]

@@EllenRuthSoap ok so just split the batch n in each one use usage rate n it's ok once combined correct? Thank you so much 💕

[@karendrury3491]

Think that would also look good with slight red in middle of soap too with those colors but looks awesome anyway

[@EllenRuthSoap]

That would be pretty! I’ll keep that in mind for next year😉

[@PlumCrazyHomesteader]

I find thst mica and Brambleberry's Cappuccino mica turn gray. I would suggest dark brown oxide for a rich brown color. Loved the color morph! 😂

[@deurbanscents2561]

I like the idea of using your red & white shavings. Candy cane shapes are common. Beautiful.

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Thanks!

[@leena118]

Always great to see your videos. Lovely soap and a fun way to start a Monday!

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Thank you so much!

[@joycecrawford4947]

I loved this video, your such a talented lady, thank you so much, loved the music as well x

[@scentofheavenco]

Absolutely adorable Ellen those are going to fly off the shelf.....

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Thanks 🎄

[@litenen]

I just have to say I appreciate your videos so much! I always watch soap videos when I give my baby his bottles and we cuddle after and he really like them. Yours have been my go to lately, binge watching them 😁

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Thank you so much for watching!

[@tassiegirl1991]

Love you that’s hideous, that’s a baby diaper colour….just got me giggling more when you spooned the last on top…..glad it was smelling great Love the peppermint twists what a good idea even if fiddle. Oh it did turn back quickly to chocolate I wasn’t expecting that and so quick… relief it’s a yummy soap.

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Yes 🤢 it really was an awful color morph 🤣 glad it bounced back 😅

[@theorgelmeisterakathesoapm8589]

Such a great idea with great results! Wow, that funky morph!!!

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Thanks! It was the funniest morph I've seen! So glad it bounced back🤣

[@consuela3214]

Loving the little twists on top. I’m just imagining the smell. Can’t wait to try a bar.

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Thank you! It does smell amazing!🎄

[@ronaawalt3311]

Cute soap! I love peppermint hot cocoa, it's my favorite. Those peppermint curls really added some color to the chocolate brown. Time intensive i'm sure, but worth the effort!

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Thank you so much 🤗

[@amberknight8555]

I'm always in awww when I watch a soap maker mix fragrance and colors and bam color morph, will stay that way? Will it change back? 🤔 this was a fun video and the soaps turned out great as always!

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Thanks! That Grinch green took me by suprise, I'm so glad it bounced back!

[@sarawahby12]

The color is beautiful, maybe because the chocolate tree and the beans are green at first 😂

[@oneacre7174]

Cocoa powder makes a nice brown 😊. I only use natural colorants so I know nothing of micas…except that I’d probably spend a fortune buying them because there’s so many pretty options! Best to have my limited choice lol.

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Cocoa powder is fantastic in soap💕

[@CarolinaGirlCreationZ]

This turned out wonderfully. I actually liked the green. I think if someone were going for a rustic jewel tones Christmas colored theme, it would look great with a deep burgundy and a cream color hanger swirl. Question for you. (I'm so sorry I ask so many questions. :'( ) When do you put your Christmas soaps out? I'm new-ish so I'm trying to sort out how to plan these kind of holidays. Not that I'll ever sell but for family and friends, is it better to give them soaps at Thanksgiving or wait until Christmas, knowing that Christmas will be over as soon as midnight strikes on Christmas day?

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Thanks! I try to have my Christmas soaps ready in Nov. or early Dec.

[@soapytalesbyjo4650]

Lovely looking soap now Ellen, but, boy was that first colour hideous:))

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Yes, Grinch green was not what I was going for! So glad it came back!

[@caligirl9070]

Beautiful as always! What size mold did you use, and where can I buy one?

[@EllenRuthSoap]

There's a link in the description box. it's the tall triple skinny from Workshop Heritage

[@RaphJoli]

Love the curls and the look of the swirls. That color morph was outrageous! It's a good thing it didn't stay that color!

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Thanks 🤣 I would have had to change the name to Grinch 😅

[@rhonda4829]

So the lye discount and the goat milk, do you do half water in the lye and half milk?

[@EllenRuthSoap]

I use equal parts water with lye, then the "extra liquid" volume in milk.

[@marizelamarin5984]

Would like the recipe

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Here's a video with several great recipes: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iYCYn2erjKqJhZI

[@jamiesheff4246]

As always, I love your videos!! I have a fellow soapmaker question. When making milk soap, how on earth do you keep it from overheating and getting lye or oil pockets? I'm beyond frustrated. Your soaps all look so pretty and mine in my nice new slab mold..... ughhh. Worse than baby poop.

[@EllenRuthSoap]

I’ve been doing the milk in oil method lately, and haven’t had any issues. A couple of helpful things are to soap at cooler temps and use a water discount…. Hope that helps 💕

[@OklahomaJamie]

I will try that. Would you say 100 degrees, or lower? I had someone tell me 80-90. They’ve always worked in a loaf mold, but I got a slab mold and no bueno. Even straight to the freezer immediately.

[@EllenRuthSoap]

@@OklahomaJamie I soap around 80

[@bellabates4512]

I still get confused when one says water discount. Let’s use an example of 100 g of water that you would mix with your lye. Did you take a portion of the 100 g of water as the goat milk and then left the remaining portion of “water” to mix with the lye?

[@EllenRuthSoap]

so for an example; your recipe calls for 100g of lye, you would mix it with 100g of water and use the rest of your liquid for the milk in oil method. Hope that makes sense.

[@ericabeache]

How long does the mixed TD last in the bottle?

[@EllenRuthSoap]

If you add a touch of preservative it will last several weeks. Without it, I would use in a couple of days. You can also premix oil soluble TD, and that's more stable

[@AllBubbledUpSoap]

I LOVE heavy cream in soap! I use the actual liquid but have thought about trying the powder. I tried a vegan recipe and it just wasn't as nice, so I switched back.

[@pamelagrey949]

Where do you get your soap stamp

[@EllenRuthSoap]

There's a link in the description box.

[@barbarapowell27]

That color morph was crazy!! Soap looks fabulous ♥️🤍🤎 I was wondering if you have to do a water discount when you added the titanium dioxide mixed in water??

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Thanks 💚💕 yes, I do a steep water discount.

[@dolljoylissa]

Love it! I have tried your soap, I still have a couple and I have to say - it is my favorite so far. I’m wondering if it is due to the goat milk.

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Thanks! I love the goat milk soaps, there's just something extra creamy about them.

[@JessicaCEP]

It evokes hot colonoscopy! Sorry for everything! For a second it looked a little like the Aleppo color, which is my favorite soap you make ( so far!)

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Hahahaha, I'm so glad it bounced back!

[@cliviascreations]

Love those curls, no ware , great idea!! Question Ellen that mica always turns my soap black, what was your color after cure? If you don’t mind. Had to change the name on one of my soap to bumblebee just because of that mica, same supplier

[@EllenRuthSoap]

After the full cure, it was a milk chocolate color. But I did add a bit of TD to the lye water
