Cold process soap has an amazing texture. After a few minutes of stick blending, it thickens enough to hold its shape. That means you can create any design you like – all you need is a spoon or fork.
In this short video, we show you 10 ways to texture cold process soap. Some texture requires a medium trace, while other designs benefit from a thicker trace. Learn more about trace here.
If you’re curious about the recipe in this video, find it below. The Swirl Recipe Quick Mix is specially formulated to give you plenty of time to work, so it’s perfect for creating the different textures. Rose Quartz Fragrance Oil also behaves well in cold process soap with no acceleration.

I have more of a question than comment. When making waves or other designs in the soap, how do you cover it and not mess up the design?
Thank you
Looks like lots of fun, but I wish you’d also include a real recipe for those of us who have have plenty of ingredients but can’t quite get things to work right.
The recipe is at the bottom of the page and uses our Swirl Recipe Quick Mix. If you’re wanting to make a recipe without using a quick mix the Crisp Cotton Swirl Cold Process soap is a good basic swirl recipe to use.
