Lemon Cheesecake Soap
Making soap that looks good enough to eat is simple! I accidentally discovered this "cheesecake" recipe when I
was making lemon exfoliating soap with cornmeal. I had made it in a square mold and decided to try something
new -- cutting it diagonally. Even though my nose told me it was just lemon soap, my mind was envisioning
cheesecake! Now you can indulge in cheesecake and not gain an ounce! This soap will make a wonderful gift for
any occasion. And it's all done using melt and pour glycerin soap. You'll need the opaque type, which is colored
white by the mineral titanium dioxide, and the translucent [clear] kind. The reason for this is that to get a proper
cheesecake effect with the ‘graham cracker crust', you must be able to seal the corn meal so that it isn't loose.
The amount used for this particular recipe calls for a 1 cup mold. Naturally, you can increase the measurements
as needed. In fact, if you choose to make slabs of cheesecake, you can either find a round plastic mold, or a
triangular mold. Triangular molds will be in at least three parts and are used by ordinary people for storing meals.
Soapmakers see them a bit differently!
