The truth is that I never had the glycerin soap but many people have asked me about this type of soap because they dare to make soap with lye, so finally I decided to experiment a little and this has been the result. For those of you who are with this type of soap that is easy to tell which is the most indicated whether they want to make soap with children. You only have to buy glycerin base bars usually sold by weight. There are two types of bases, the transparent and white, to use only the base must be cut into cubes and put it to melt the double boiler or microwave a few seconds. Once melted is added dyes, fragrances and other additives to taste and pour into molds. Allowed to dry, remove the mold and you have your soap ready for use.
To do this you need a photo of the silicone mold used to make mini muffins or sweets, which have to pour the clear melted with pure cocoa added if you want a little chocolate fragrance. You let it dry, unmold and you're ready to put the meringue on top. To top derretis white glycerin base, add a pinch of red color and fragrance of strawberry, just mix well and you add cornstarch to give consistent and now you have to beat the mixture very well so no lumps with a barillas blender or is a tiny amount to a mini blender that is used to make foam in coffee. All this we have to do while the mixture is in a water bath to keep cool and do not stay hard. Meteis the mixture into a pastry bag and you furnish the soap way cupcake. Finally you can put fideillos balls or chocolate on top to garnish. What do you think they look?
