Wasn’t the best of harvest this year… The invasion of mango tree roots into the primary spice bed took its toll I think… Can’t complain though as we have over 1½kg of both ginger & turmeric for use in the kitchen..
A bit of the turmeric has been dehydrated & to turn into powder,

Other bits of the turmeric has been minced to go into the freezer to preserve them..

This video is a tutorial for technique and design meant for soapers who have a firm understanding of CP soap making. It is not an instruction for basic soap making.

James and I are soaping again. This time we are celebrating Fall with a new soap scent! Pumpkin Pecan Waffles is absolutely delicious.

This soap is a bastile recipe, made with olive, coconut oils and shea butter. It is coloured with cocoa powder and annatto seed powder. We loaded it up with lots of fun embeds too!

Enjoy! Thanks for watching and see you next time!
