We’ve finally attempted (and successfully conquered) the Fortune Cookie Soap. We were inspired last year by French Hill Country (see post here) and we just had to try it!
Ingredients

Sparkle Gold Mica
Buttercream and Snickerdoodle Fragrance

Step 1: Melt 6-8 oz of soap and add your color and fragrance oil. We used the delicious, yet, discoloring, Buttercream & Snickerdoodle so we added a splash of Vanilla Color Stabilizer. Add liquid glycerinto the mixture at a 10% usage rate (about .6 oz or just a splash).Step 2: Pour a thin layer (1/8 inch) into the silicone pan and let cool for 5-10 minutes. Once the soap is cooled, punch out 5-6 round cut outs with your cookie cutter (or you can freehand them like this method). Add the scraps to the remaining melted soap and save for rounds 2 and 3.
Step 3: Fold each circle cut out in half. This is the time to insert your secret message or “fortune” if you are so inclined.
Step 4: Fold the opposite ends together with out making a crease in the middle. Our cookies turned out the best when we folded the ends together around a small object like a pen.
Step 5: Enjoy yourself or make someone’s day with a forune personalized just for them! Not feeling creative? You can get fortune cookie sayings on this site.
