Making Biscoff-Inspired Soap | Cold Process Soap Making

Today I'm making a cold process soap inspired by Biscoff cookies and cookie butter! For this design, I'm using warm caramel and cookie-butter colors, a creamy white top, and handmade cookie-shaped soap embeds. I wanted to create something that captures the look of those delicious little cookies while still making a beautiful, usable bar of soap. I also used a sugar cookie fragrance in the brown portion of my batter, leaving the cream-colored portions unscented to help keep those colors nice and light. I hope you enjoy watching this one come together! *SHOP MY SOAP STAMPS & CUSTOM DESIGNS* Hudson Valley Soapery on Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/shop/HudsonValle... *BISCOFF-INSPIRED COLD PROCESS SOAP RECIPE* Total oil weight: 2,400 g Superfat: 5% Water-to-lye ratio: 1.7:1 *OILS & FATS* Olive Oil — 25% 600 g Coconut Oil — 25% 600 g Palm Oil — 25% 600 g Lard — 15% 360 g Castor Oil — 5% 120 g Sweet Almond Oil — 5% 120 g *LYE SOLUTION* Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) — 340.86 g Distilled Water — 579.46 g *FRAGRANCE* VineVida Sugar Cookie Fragrance Oil — 24 g I used fragrance oil at 2% of the oil weight in my brown batter only. The brown batter contained half of my total oils (1,200 g), so I used 24 g of fragrance oil. The cream-colored batter was left unscented to help prevent discoloration. *DESIGN* A warm cookie-butter-colored base with a contrasting cream swirl, a thin cookie-colored layer, and a creamy top finished with handmade cookie-shaped soap embeds.

Check the manufacturer's recommended usage rate for your specific fragrance oil. Wear appropriate protective equipment when working with sodium hydroxide, and follow proper cold process soap-making safety procedures. Thanks so much for watching!
