1 pound of Melt and Pour Soap Base
5 drops Blueberry soap colorant
5 drops Cherry soap colorant
2 drops Cherry soap colorant for strips of soap
glass measuring cup
soap mold
wooden crafts sticks for stirring
spray bottle of rubbing alcohol
soap cutter or knife

Instructions

Cut the soap into ½ inch – 1 inch cubes.

Set 2 cubes aside

Divide the remainder of the cubes into 3 equal piles.

Place the 2 cubes you set aside into a measuring cup. Microwave on high for about 20 seconds.

Add 2 drops of cherry soap colorant and stir well.

Pour the soap mixture into the mold and let set for 30 minutes.

Remove the soap from the mold and cut it into small strips, about ⅛ inch in size.

Roll each strip from one end to the other, creating the decorative top of the soap. Set aside.

Put one of the piles of soap cubes into the measuring cup and microwave on high for 30 seconds. Stir well. If not completely melted, put in for 10 second intervals until completely melted.

Add 5 drops of Blueberry Soap Colorant and stir well.

Pour the soap mixture into the mold, spray with rubbing alcohol to remove any bubbles, and let set for about 45 minutes.

Put the second pile of soap cubes into the measuring cup and microwave on high for 30 seconds. Stir well. If not completely melted, put in for 10 second intervals until completely melted.

Pour into mold (on top of the blue), spray with rubbing alcohol to remove any bubbles, and let set for about 45 minutes.

Put the remaining set of the piles of soap cubes into the measuring cup and microwave on high for 30 seconds. Stir well. If not completely melted, put in for 10 second intervals until completely melted.

Add 5 drops of Cherry Soap Colorant and stir well.

Pour into mold on top of the white soap.

Gather the rolls for the decorative top and spread over the top of the red layer of soap. Make sure that each one has set slightly into the layer that is liquified, so that they will stick and not fall out once the soap is dry.
