Coffee Cocoa Mocha Soap Recipe

Notes:
Disperse 3 teaspoons of titanium dioxide into 2 tablespoons of lightweight liquid oil, like sweet almond oil or sunflower oil.
Then in separate containers, disperse 1/2 teaspoon of Black Oxide(substitute-charcoal) into 1/2 tablespoon lightweight liquid oil.
Disperse 1/2 teaspoon of Brown Oxide(substitute-cocoa) into 1/2 tablespoon lightweight liquid oil.
1 teaspoon of sodium lactate per pound of oils in the recipe For this recipe use 4 tsp of sodium lactate.
Once you have a thin trace, pour off 300 mL of soap into a separate container and 600 mL into another container.
To the 300 mL of soap, add 1/4 tsp. dispersed Black Oxide. Then, add 1/2 tsp. dispersed Brown Oxide to the container with 600 mL of soap. Use a spoon or whisk to mix in the colorants.
To the large container of soap, add all of the dispersed titanium dioxide. Use a whisk to mix in the colorant.
Then pulse for a few seconds with the stick blender to help fully mix in the colorant.
Add 2 tablespoons of used coffee grounds to the large container, and use a whisk to fully mix in.
Add the Espresso Fragrance Oil proportionately to each container of soap (it’s okay to eyeball it) and use a whisk to fully mix in the fragrance oil.
Pour some of the light soap into the mold – just enough to cover the bottom (about 1 inch).
Holding the black soap several inches above the mold, pour a small and steady stream of black soap into the mold.
Holding the container a few inches above the mold helps the black soap fall to the bottom of the mold.
Pour the black soap all the way down the length of the mold.
Pour less black soap with each pass than brown and tan.
A little bit of black soap goes a long way! You also need some black soap leftover at the end for the swirl.
Pour more tan soap into the mold, followed by an imperfect line of the brown soap. Because you have more brown soap, pour a larger amount. Hold each layer several inches above the mold to help the colors break through. Don’t worry about being too exact during the pouring process.
See the pictures on how to swirl the top.
