Hii

[@alwyngreen7205]

You need to start telling people in your tutorials that they can’t use a mixer for baking after using it to make something like this

[@brujachingona2175]

@@alwyngreen7205 most mixers are stainless steel. There's no problem using it for something else after washing.

[@Hopeapotheke]

Could you give us this recipe in percentages so we can make it in the quantity we would like instead?

[@yes1canb320]

I just plug the volume measurements into a calculator or spreadsheet to calculate percentages.

[@pagangoddesstarot331]

When I was young I lived up North. I walked outside after a blizzard! There was a full moon shining on the field behind my house. The feild was pristine! The frost was on the snow shining silver but the snow was white and blue! I think you nailed it!

[@x_moosh_x2969]

I 100% wear a mask when using SLSA. No matter how careful you are, it gets into the air and it definitely effects me. I first thought it would be fine and didn't wear a mask, I coughed for hours afterwards. Definitely recommend a mask!

[@ashleyc7287]

Strange to see a video without Anne Marie but its still fantastic! Thank you!

[@littleredhouseonthehillsoa1209]

I like Amanda she should make more videos she’s fun!!!

Amanda, you’re great at this! LOVE! More!!

[@akpharvey1]

Just finished making these, my first bath truffles ever. Why haven't I make these before?!? I LOVE THEM!!! Made these for my grandchildren, I may have to keep some for me!

[@rhondag6635]

Amanda, this is always my go to recipe. It is the best.

[@yoliholmes1092]

I accepted the challenge and made a Mint Chocolate Chip Bubbling Bath Scoop. I followed this recipie, but added the chocolate chip chunks. I used 4 oz clear melt and pour soap with 1/2 t of cocoa powder. Turned out amazing!!! #BrambleOn

[@bramble-berry]

Be sure to post pictures online with that hashtag, we'd love to see them!

[@codybrookehanson2346]

I was thinking this as she said it, totally doing it for Summer!

[@MoneyMimi]

Oh Oreo chip or next peppermint

[@ShimmeringIceCrystal626]

Just stopping by to say Silver Sparkle is still my favorite fragrance of all time. Thank you for keeping it around ❤❤❤

[@kezzaobee1462]

Beautiful presenter..and such a wonderful idea. sparingly pretty.

[@annaknobloch]

I make these bath truffles in all different scents all the time for gifts for my colleagues. They are a big hit. I just use fractionated coconut oil instead of the extract and whatever scent I want. I tend to use unrefined cocoa butter so I try to use scents that go well with the chocolate smell. So easy and they make the best bubbles.

[@monikasauer3394]

Fun project! Amanda was great!

[@NancylynnMaineMadesoaps]

Thank you for sharing can't wait to try them.

[@younganimals2948]

Ohhhh glad you made this When I saw it on the Brambleberry website I really wanted to buy it

[@Mustbelexy]

I think it looks like icecream 😍🤤

[@bramble-berry]

It most certainly does!

[@rhondag6635]

Amanda I tried this recipe it turned out it’s so beautiful and it’s wonderful in the bath.

[@joyce-lovesilville310]

Wow, pretty I will try and make its one day soon. Thanks for sharing.

[@YayaDIYCreations]

Brilliant!! So pretty!! 😍💜

[@conniebammel8445]

Thank you for the recipe! I enjoyed your lesson!

[@dwanngriffin1455]

This was a great video, they turned out so pretty! Amanda, Thank you - great job!

I have bought all the ingredients and can't wait to get these made!!

[@bramble-berry]

Oh that is so exciting! We just know they will turn out wonderful

[@ronaprescott4007]

Nice. Thanks for sharing. I wanna try these with household products only. I gotta experiment.

[@EverythingTammy]

My FAVE part 16:24 🤣😂😂 I REALLY enjoyed your video Amanda! Thx u so much...TOTALLY GORGEOUS!!

[@wj5442]

These are beautiful!

[@annasoop]

It seems like SLSA powder is coming all the way here. Haha Ah-choo~ The shape of the ice cream is lovely.

[@suemeyer7551]

These are soooo pretty!!! Would this "dough" be rollable with a rolling pin for like cookie cutters?

[@bramble-berry]

It should be! You may want to use baking soda in place of flour on your work surface!

[@melindaduncan3073]

This is one of my favorite scents.

[@PolkaDotPearle]

Could you put the SLSA in first, then the other dry ingredients are sitting on top of it, so it poofs less?

[@lauralangley7240]

I so love your creative team and Bramble Berry. You have amazing ideas that we can use with your great fragrances and come up with some amazing projects to add to what you come up with. I cannot wait to make this and share in Instagram. Ty, so much 💙💙💙💙🤎🤎🧡🧡🧡🖤

[@drarchanag1554]

Enjoyed watching it , Will definitely make them . Thank you.😊

I love these 💗

[@sophra1927]

awww i mean i love anne marie... but amanda is awesome too! hope to see more vids from her as well.

[@L.sabore]

Too cute

[@pattyallen1994]

I was surprised you didn’t put ant coco betaine in your recipe. I found a recipe with just coco betaine as the surfactant and I like that recipe so much more than buying slsa but I might try yours to see the difference. I really enjoyed your video. Thank you

[@MoneyMimi]

Cute NYE gifts!

[@zedalpha-e60s]

Would love to see someone put snowman faces on these! What a beautiful effect.

[@bramble-berry]

That's a fantastic idea!

[@31398genesis]

I love this ❤

[@shllewis9]

I must be hungry cause this looks just like food 😋 and of course I know its not I would not eat this at all but this is my 2 a.m cravings for food...

[@SudsBees]

great recipe. I'm wondering if the poly80 is enough for all that oil, does it get rid of the slippery danger?

[@tinalee3374]

I loved this tutorial, thank you 💗 I can’t find champagne extract in Canada or much info online for substitutions. What would you suggest?

[@bramble-berry]

Thank you! Any other oil-soluble extract or lightweight oil would work well as a substitution.

[@kizzeycalvert2345]

Wow they look amazing. I would love to try them. A question, what does the champagne extract do? Can it be replaced with something else? Thanks

[@bramble-berry]

It's a lightweight liquid oil that's adding extra skin loving properties to this recipe!

[@annforgrave4495]

But can it be left out?

[@ivonvalle2683]

Love your video. Thank you

[@vernaharris8730]

I made these!!! I used a 1-ounce scoop and got 64 truffles. I used honeysuckle scent. These turned out so well.

[@bramble-berry]

If you post photos online, tag them with #BrambleOn so we can see the final product!

[@younganimals2948]

How big was the scoop? Was it a big, small or medium scoop?

[@vernaharris8730]

@@younganimals2948 I used a 1 oz scoop that I bought from target. I think it made the perfect sized truffle.

[@annforgrave4495]

Same size i use

[@CardsbyMaaike]

very nice, Don't have a bath myself, but they're nice for gifts. I had a candle once that had it's wax in an icecream scoop shape in a glass

[@suemeyer7551]

Another question, sorry :) I would like to make in the next day or 2 & won't be able to order the champagne extract in time. What could I substitute it with? Fractionated coconut oil perhaps? I'm in Canada. Thank you!

[@bramble-berry]

Fractionated coconut oil would work great!

[@penniehenri1076]

These are absolutely beautiful. Would polysorbate 60 be as effective as polysorbate 80 with these ingredients?

[@angelinaspaperandapothecar7177]

Hello, mine smell off due to the shade butter having a slight odor. What can I do to fix this? I just wasted a ton of ingredients. As soon as mine hit water they stink like the shea butter. Please help! Thanks!

[@shereenraymond9849]

Thank you

[@karlamuzio]

Complimenti, questa ricetta è adorabile ed il prodotto finale è veramente grazioso, voglio provarla, ma non riesco a trovare l' estratto di champagne, posso sostituirlo e con cosa potrei sostituirlo?

[@marycovington5405]

I enjoyed the video and made the bath scoops. Is there another butter that can be used instead of coco butter?

[@kaaayl11]

if i used a fragrance oil with a high vanillin content is it going to turn the mixture brown?

[@abitofwhimsie]

Why do you put the slsa in last? Put it in first.. then it’s covered with other ingredients and you won’t have to worry about it proofing.

[@miriamrivasdaffodilsoapfavors]

How do they do in the heat? I do outdoor events and heat is always a problem. Do they melt or get soft?

[@technozator]

I have recently found this channel and it’s amazing...and all the products in the shop too, shame I’m in Spain and shipping costs are too much because I’d love to try all those scents... Here the cream of tartar it’s a bit difficult and expensive to get, can I substitute it ? Or just not adding it? Thanks a lot 🖤

[@bramble-berry]

You can omit the cream of tartar, it just helps the bubbles! You can always add a little more citric acid or baking soda to help with that. As for international shipping, some of our customers will order supplies with friends to split the shipping costs! Before you order, be sure to check out our international shipping policies page to make sure you know everything first: www.brambleberry.com/international-shipping-policies.html

[@technozator]

@@bramble-berry Thank you very much for your response :) I'll check then the international shipping terms

[@angelinaspaperandapothecar7177]

Do I have to use champagne extract? Thanks!

[@ARI-kp9gs]

Can you explain why you added the citric acid? Like what does this ingredient provide to the truffles?

[@salonisalonilodha9659]

U r amazing 😍, can u tell me how much time can we store and use it , their selflife ??

[@shesjustamidwestgirl]

Is the 2 oz size suitable for one use or would it be better for 2? Thanks! 💜

[@bramble-berry]

This original recipe calls for 0.8 ounces of fragrance so the 2 ounce bottle will make 2 batches with a bit remaining.

[@shesjustamidwestgirl]

@@bramble-berry Sorry-I meant the 2 oz bath truffle. Would it be safe for one bath or should it be broken into two? Sorry about that. Thank you!! 💜

[@marieellis3139]

Hi Amanda, these looks amazing i am from the uk and wanted to know how much batch is these truffles and are these 100% formula ? i am new to body care world. please help me

[@bramble-berry]

This recipe makes about 18 truffles. You can find the full recipe and ingredients list on our website: www.brambleberry.com/articles-and-projects/projects/bath-bombs/sparkling-snowball-bath-truffle-project/PS000272.html

[@XxzyzixNightmare]

I always try to add citric acid last, so I'm curious how this would bubble

[@breannakearley3440]

Can you shrink wrap these for shipping? Or would the truffles mess up?

[@bramble-berry]

Shrink wrapping your bath truffles should help keep them together, but if you're worried, we would recommend you use something more solid like jars! If you do choose to shrink wrap, it might be a good idea to throw in some silica packets to absorb an excess moisture during the shipping process!

[@breannakearley3440]

@@bramble-berry thank you!

[@keelymccool4257]

what would you recommend to use for packaging? I want to give them out for X-mas

[@bramble-berry]

If you aren't transporting them far, using simple plastic bags or pouches will work great. If you want something more secure for long-distance shipping, we recommend using sealable jars!

[@ashleyc7287]

How do these need to be packaged? Do they need to be fully sealed or can they be left to the air?

[@bramble-berry]

We recommend wrapping them tightly with plastic wrap and storing them in a cool, dry place.

[@laurakleinsasser6538]

I wonder if I could substitute the shea butter for mango butter

[@bramble-berry]

Yes, mango butter would work as well!

[@cynplanas2467]

Can I make this recipe but use instead liquid SLS? Would the measurements be the same? I couldn't find the powder one here in Argentina. Love this truffles by the way 😍... such a shame I cannot try them 😭

[@nagipoch]

You cannot use liquid in this because citric acid and baking soda will react and create catastrophic bubble~~~~

[@alwyngreen7205]

I like watching Amanda, very informative. Could you tell me if we made a bubble bar could we sell them?? It’s just I was informed by royalty soaps that Lush owns the name and pattern. I make a bubble bath bomb sand ( 1-2tsp for normal baths or 1/2-1tsp for in home tub spa baths)

[@bramble-berry]

You should be able to sell them, we just recommend avoid using the term "bubble bar" when you market them.

[@bebita58]

I just wanted to bring to attention the amazing “wear a mask campaign” that our sweet Anne Marie led via her instagram all throughout the pandemic. Her creative young son even made (sewed!) masks himself for his community. This was a perfect opp to use one of his homemade masks to protect Amanda’s lungs and mucous membranes (and motivate viewers to work safely).

[@jiyoungyun7912]

How long will the bubbles stay in the bathtub? Because mine(with this recipe) made a lot of bubbles but they were gone in less than 5 minutes.

[@bramble-berry]

For more bubbles, try running the truffles directly under the faucet when the bath tub is about 1/2 full of water.

[@anna-mariajones9359]

I’m in Australia and don’t have access to champagne extract. Can I replace it with something like coconut oil? I really want to make these for Christmas presents 🎁

[@bramble-berry]

Any lightweight liquid oil would work! Coconut oil may make them a little bit firmer, but should work fine.

[@RoryMariaMusic]

Hi, I was wondering if I out omit the liquid glycerine or replace it with something else - it’s the only ingredient I don’t have and I really want to make these ASAP. Thanks in advance!

[@christybrooks3729]

Now foods has liquid glycerine or find it in any health food store or Amazon

[@bramble-berry]

You could omit the glycerin if you need. You may want to add a little more shea butter to keep a similar texture. You could also add more of a lightweight liquid oil if you have one on hand.

[@pfwindham]

Will this recipe work with the press out cookie cutting moon cake cutter?

[@bramble-berry]

It should! You may want to use baking soda in place of flour on your work surface!

[@prachiverma2605]

My mom just combined the blue mixture with white mixture and then scooped it she said it was easier to do than to take it out on a baking sheet

[@John-jv2lo]

How hard are these supposed to get after they dry?

[@belindarae9879]

Thank you for sharing and cant wait to try making them for year round pressies. How long can you store them for ? Also do you ship some of the ingredient to the UK ?

[@bramble-berry]

We recommend using them within 6 months! And yes, we do ship to the UK! Whenever you ship internationally though, we recommend reading our International Shipping Policies before ordering: www.brambleberry.com/international-shipping-policies.html

[@codybrookehanson2346]

Can bath truffles be formed in molds similar to a bath bomb or is the scoop/layered slices really the only way to go about it? I'm not that great at bath bomb making so I thought I'd try this but still want to use some of my super cute bath bomb shape molds.

[@codybrookehanson2346]

Also add on question - could I use SCI and cocamidopropyl betaine instead of SLSa?

[@jazminevielma9654]

Once you have the dry ingredients mixed together, and the wet ingredients mixed together, would it be possibly to split those in half and add a different fragrance oil to make two separate batches?

[@bramble-berry]

If you want to split the batch and use two fragrance oils, you'll want to combine your other wet ingredients first, then split them to add fragrance to each half.

[@jazminevielma9654]

Just tried these and they are awesome! If packaged in a bag is there a specific amount of time that they are best used by?

[@bramble-berry]

@@jazminevielma9654 We recommend using them within 6 months.

[@terrythorp9124]

Looks like an expensive recipe. Do you know the cost break down per bath truffle?

[@kellyw.1779]

I was thinking the same thing about the total cost of the recipe itself. She used 15 ounces of SLSA and they charge $25.85 for 28 ounces. The SLSA alone is $13.85. It is a fairly large batch but the price of the SLSA still makes me say...Ouch! Lol Cutting back the SLSA to at least half would still make a lot of bubbles from one scoop. : )

[@terrythorp9124]

@@kellyw.1779 plus you add in everything else. Very expensive to make. How much could you sell them for to make a profit?

[@SudsBees]

@@terrythorp9124 is see these on etsy for about $15 each.

[@TessieDobey]

Seems relatively cheap to me!

[@barbwaller2406]

I did a breakdown on the cost. If you purchase their kit at $85.00 you will make about 18 truffles. Each truffle will cost $4.70 to make. However, you will have a lot of some ingredients left over. I also did a "per ounce" breakdown and that came out to $2.74 each to make.

[@DoseOfBaani]

Omg. I looovvveeeee these!!! 😍😍😍 Instead of slsa can I substitute with castile soap?

[@bramble-berry]

We haven't tested this recipe with castile soap. It would probably change the texture quite dramatically, because you're replacing a powder with a liquid. We would recommend making a small test batch first to see what you think!

[@DoseOfBaani]

@@bramble-berry Thank you. I'll just go ahead and order me some slsa now. Lol. ☺

[@maryoneil1468]

Would this be just as effective and have good bubbles without slsa?

[@clarewhite3004]

Nope, it would fizz but not bubble.

[@beautifulflawscreations3390]

I follow this recipe minus the fragrance and mica and mines didn’t fizzy at all😔what did I do wrong

[@aileendennett7030]

I did the same, well so I thought. Instead of 15oz of slsa I put 1.5oz slsa. Lesson learnt alway check measurements and wear my glasses lol

Yes you can.

[@ivonvalle2683]

Can you use a hand mixer??

[@LovelessYayaoi]

I thought ultramarine blue wasn't safe to use for bath products like bath bombs and truffles?

[@kaitlyncleary3424]

Why?

[@kellylatorre9558]

Can you sub anything for some of that SLSA cause...that stuff is expensive

[@mok5821]

Is it possible to use sweet almond oil instead of shea butter??

[@bramble-berry]

A lightweight oil like sweet almond oil will not work in the recipe. If you're looking to substitute the shea butter, you will need to replace it with a similar hard butter like cocoa or avocado butter.

[@MyElmonkey]

Can I make this with half of the slsa around 6 or 7oz ?

[@bramble-berry]

You can, but you will want to increase the amount of baking soda and citric acid to maintain a similar texture.

[@K1TT3N5.]

Can I make this recipe with out SLSA ? Cause I do not need the bubble.

[@choipinky263]

Yes ，don’t do anything except for bubble

can polysorbate can be subsituted with cocamidopropyl betain? thank you

[@haileyb9854]

I used this exact recipe and after I made my scoops, they all expanded into big “cookies”! Where did I go wrong…maybe a measurement was wrong? Not sure which ingredient causes it to expand or not?

[@shewearsfunnyhat]

Can use a mold instead of using an ice cream scoop?

[@bramble-berry]

We have tried this recipe in a silicone mold, with moderate results. Depending on the size of your mold, they will take a few days to harden and dry in the mold. We recommend using a mold without any small details, as the mixture will get stuck.

[@TessieDobey]

Thank you for this, another soaper is selling this exact same recipe for $125.
