I've watched a ton of soap icing/frosting videos and tried many of them. This seems like the most reasonable one I've seen so far. I can't wait to try it. Thank you for being generous and sharing! :)
OMG, Thank you so much for this! I have tried about 5 different recipes and none of them were evn close to acceptable and all of them came from very reliable sources. Either they stay soft or the were hard and brittle. I made a loaf yestrday that not only piped perfectly but when I unmolded and cut it, it was absouletly amazing!!!! I also used your recipe for cold process embeds which was also a huge success!!!! My soap life has changed! Thank you so much for sharing your expieriences and your receipes!!!!!
THHHHAAAANNNNKKKK YOOOUUU for unmystifying the TOP SECRET soap frosting recipe and most importantly "how-to" ..its not so much about ingredients its about the method of blending and the almighty refrigerator tricks!!
THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS!!!!! It is THE BEST icing recipe I have used to date! (and girl, I have tried A LOT!) Thank you Thank you!!! I'm FINALLY able to be happy with my end results now!!! Whoop! Whoop!
Very nice - I am addicted to Press & Seal, It's such easy clean up. I use a coupler to switch tips if I choose ton! Just to keep options open. I use a cake scraper & can eliminate waste some associate with it. I can paint mica or stripe or band colors. Negative - Its ridiculously expensive now. I also have a second kitchen aid for soap I love!. I have gone to using my same soap recipe (sometimes it requires patience to wait for that ideal consistency. Or an accelerating fragrance I often measure off % of milk/lye & butter/oils to begin a bit later opting to omit fragrance especially for those naughty fragrances.
Thank you soooo much for sharing your recipe and how to use it. I love making little soaps and stuff for people. I guess its my hobby....LOL. It's fun tho. New Sub!!!
My family and I absolutely love you! I started making soap and bath products years ago mostly hot process but your videos gave me the courage to try CP 😍 its my favorite creative outlet ! I had no idea though that while I was pregnant my twins were listening to your videos as i binged! Now.. At almost 5 months old... They KNOW your voice and when we watch your videos they react to your voice as if they knew you! Thank you for being an inspiration for my lil family!
Thanks so much for sharing all the info & your procedure for making this! I’m looking forward to seeing what you & Vanessa come up with to do together.
Hey- I made this again today and it was perfect! I let the cold oils soften at room temp for a while longer and added the lye very slowly over 8-10 mins. Worked perfect!! Smooth and fluffy! Thank you SO much for this recipe! It's just beautiful!
Agnes O'hara to let it warm up? I kind of let it soften but not melt kind of keep watching it. Took and hour or two ish depends on how hot the room is too
Girl, this is an awesome recipe! I've never seen it done this way. It looks like it would pipe perfect flowers. I have a devil of a time waiting for soap batter to get to the right consistency. I don't know how long of a work time it gives you, but I'm going to try it! ~ Jill Gross
Love watching your videos. Your soaps are amazing! Need to see more baby pics. Thank you so much for this recipe and tips. I have so much trouble piping.
OMG TY! This is by far the best recipe I've seen. This would be great for cupcake BB. I typically don't like the sugar icing as I never get it to set up just right
i'm so glad i found this video! i've been wondering if you could use whipped CP soap for piping, but kept finding videos with M&P and soap whip, THIS was what i was searching for!! YAY! it seems like it would behave better while piping than waiting for my normal cp to get to just the right piping consistency, etc. thank you for sharing your expertise! :)
Thank you so much for this informative tutorial. I'm wondering if this would work on mp soap? Also, did you mention that it can be used on cut bars of cp soap? Do I just need to spray well with alcohol to make sure it's adheres? Thanks again for all your great videos. They are so helpful and inspiring. 💕
Thanks for the video. l will have to get another bowl & attachment for my Kitchen Aide & try it. l love my Kitchen Aide and l know it can more than handle it. lt's a very sturdy mixer. Your frosting looks very fluffy.Adding a teeny bit of TD helps to bring out my gold better. Thanks again :)
Cheryl the kitchen aid just makes it so much easier. Also while making the soap loaf I like to have this going in between. That way everything is ready to go.
I can’t wait to try this recipe. Can you give me the exact recipe for this? I haven’t figured out how to use a soap calculator yet. What % of lye do use?
Hey GypsyFae! I have had one heck of a time with soapy cupcake frosting and using the word "frustration" doesn't even begin to describe it. I'm looking forward to trying your recipe and thank you for sharing yours along with tips. Persevere!
Thank you sooooooooo much for such an awesome tip!!!I can't wait to try it when my fragrance oil box from Nurture Soap arrives today!Love your videos!! You're such a lovely girl!! ❤️🤗
I just found your channel and I have been making bath and body products for a while but I have been scared to try making soap because of the lye and I have been watching ALL of your videos. Thank you so much for making these videos!!! I have gotten the courage to make soap because of your videos 😊 hopefully the tune out good lol
I just texted a post please read it all I was so grateful for this recipe ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you again I don't know where u got this recipe but this is a perfect way to make your frosting
Thank you for sharing! I have used a recipe I developed but it uses melt and pour with Stephensons body butter. I would much rather have a soap like this. Does it cure to a light whipped soap (CP) consistency? I am guessing it does. I use whipped soap iced on my cupcake bubble bath bombs and tried a regular soap. It piped and looks lovely but is too heavy and some just fall off the base since the base is not soap. So I am hoping this is lighter.
When you enter the formula in to a soap calculator the water percentage it is 38%. Once you enter in the oil amounts it’ll give you the lye measurement.
Hi I love all your videos. Thank you for these you are so creative. In making the soap frosting, Can I use a hand mixer instead of a stand mixer? Thanks.
The icing looks very nice and I like that you can use it with no waiting. I would like to try it one time . What is the right recipe the one you are explaining in the video or the one in the description box ?
Thanks. It is an extra step but makes the creamiest fluffiest tops. The formula in the box is designed for everyone to use. You can take the formula and design it to fit the mold you use. More or less.
The video is great! Can you tell me which lye you use in this recipe NaOH (Sodium Hydroxide) or KOH (Potassium Hydroxide)? Also, how fast do you have to pipe before it starts setting up? Can you pipe flowers with this recipe? If you get the frosting "soap" on you while decorating will you get burned?
HI!! thank you so much for this! i tried it and my first pipping went smooth and shiny but the second time was like a lump texture, i dont know what i did wrong :(
Hi Tierrafae, it's very kind of u to share a lovely, easy CP soap frosting recipe such as this.. Kudos to you!! I don't know this but do u do M&P frosting as well..? If yes can you please PLEASE share a recipe that doesn't require a pre made bath whip and meringue powder??? I've been looking and I can't seem to find one, I'm very new! Also not that I ever think I'll graduate to CP soap making everrr.. But this frosting just like the soap itself has to sit for 4-6 weeks before it's usable yes?? Thanking you once again.. Much love!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️
👋 sorry but I don’t have a MP frosting recipe. Never even thought about that but now im curious. Lol yes this recipe is cp and cures for 4-6 weeks. Still useable but doesn’t last as long in water.
Thanks for sharing!! I can’t wait to try this but I’m allergic to Shea butter. Do you think I can just add more cocoa butter and I’ll run it through the lye calculator too?
I am trying this recipe out. I had to do more shea butter as I was low on cocoa butter. I have had it in the fridge for 40 mins or so and it isn't hardening back up. Does it, generally, stay in there for hours? Thanks!
I am very new to soaping and your video is amazing I have one what might be called a silly question but the percentage for super fat what did you use? I am so grateful to have found your channel and will continue to watch your videos you are so helpful thank you so much
Hi Tierra! I loved this video. I wrote down the measurements you used for the oils. It says 35% for the water solution. How much lye and water did you use? Thank you!!!
It's sarah refreshing to find other soap makers who do not gate keep
You little darling ,it’s as if you knew how badly I needed this tutorial. Thank you very much.x
I've watched a ton of soap icing/frosting videos and tried many of them. This seems like the most reasonable one I've seen so far. I can't wait to try it. Thank you for being generous and sharing! :)
Hope you like it! And thank you for your awesome tutorials with soap dough. 😉
I agree! It's hard to find a good tutorial on frosting! Thank you so much GypsyFae Creations!
@@LunaFaeCreations do I have to add lye into the frosting?
@@nataliamorales5785 Yes, it's soap.

Absolutely brilliant!!
Thank you sweety for the Audio.

do you leave it in the fridge overnight?
Agnes O'hara yes I did. Then let is soften at room
Temp for a while but not completely melted
@@LadySilverWolfe ok wonderful, thank you. About an hour maybe you think?
Agnes O'hara to let it warm up? I kind of let it soften but not melt kind of keep watching it. Took and hour or two ish depends on how hot the room is too
Thank you Tierra. You're awesome!!!
It looks like creamed butter! That is a great idea about using a separate bowl and whisk for soap making, I had not thought of that!
Can’t wait to try this. Now I just need to get another bowl and whisk for my kitchen aid and we’ll be in business. Thank you so much for sharing this.

Best video I've seen on making soap icing thank you!!
So kind of you to share when you really didn't have to. I can't wait to try this on my next batch of cupcakes. Thanks again!
I know I got frustrated trying to find any clue on a good method when I first started. so hope it helps. Good luck.
Thank you
Love watching your videos. Your soaps are amazing! Need to see more baby pics. Thank you so much for this recipe and tips. I have so much trouble piping.
Thank you so much for this. I've been wanting to try piping my tops. This is exactly what I needed to give me the confidence to try it.
I want to thank you for sharing this recipe! My soap looks incredible thanks to you 🤩😍🤓
Very beautiful work on both your videos and soap. thanks.
OMG TY! This is by far the best recipe I've seen. This would be great for cupcake BB. I typically don't like the sugar icing as I never get it to set up just right
C RUDOLPH it even floats! Hope you like it.
SUGAR icing on bath bombs? Never heard of that. Don't think I'd enjoy sugar in my bathwater...
Omgosh, you’re an angel to share your frosting recipe. I’m a new soaper and have been trying to develop a frosting recipe and they have been seizing.
Thank you So much for this I can hardly wait to try this
New to channel. Loved the video.
Thank you for sharing your recipe.
Awesome
Wow really great texture! One of the best icing recipe videos I've ever seen!! Great job! 😍😀

What a great idea. The texture is smooth. I thought lye had to be added to warmed, liquid & solid oils.
Thanks for the video. l will have to get another bowl & attachment for my Kitchen Aide & try it. l love my Kitchen Aide and l know it can more than handle it. lt's a very sturdy mixer. Your frosting looks very fluffy.Adding a teeny bit of TD helps to bring out my gold better. Thanks again :)

Whats the measurement for the lye water?
I just texted a post please read it all I was so grateful for this recipe ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you again I don't know where u got this recipe but this is a perfect way to make your frosting
This is awesome. I can't wait to try it out. It looks absolutely perfect and fluffy!! Thanks for sharing!
Hi luna, thanks for the great and easy tutorial.. can i just ask how much lye did u use in this recipe please? 🙏🏻
Thank you Sweetie can't wait to try this !!
I needed this recipe! thanks so much!! new soap subbie here!!
Thanks so much for this! Extremely helpful! What piping bags do you recommend, thanks
I just buy the disposable Wilton ones in large. Occasionally I’ll use the reusable one I have but not sure the brand.
Thank you so much for sharing, your awesome
Love this. So this would be the same as making whipped body soap?
💜 Nope. This one hardens because it’s the cold process method.
Thank you for sharing this. I’m finally at the point that I’d like to plunge into piping and was looking for a recipe. 😁
We’ll see how it goes. 🙄
When is a good time to frost your soap loaf?
Looks lovely. Thanks for sharing.
After how long of making a base soap should we do the icing part?
Very cool! Thanks!!
Looks great! Does it cure as hard as your regular soap recipe? Does it melt faster when used?
Thank you for sharing! Can you make this same recipe to make shapes?
Great video. Thank you , just one question , how much time do we have to do the tops before the soap it too hard to pipe pls
🙏 thanks Great job.
Also how do you figure out how much topping you will need for certain soap mold sizes and individual cavities? Thanks
This is awesome, thank you for sharing
How much lye and water do you use? Does the calculator tell you if you put amount of oils in ?
You are amazing girl.. I didn't try to make this way any soap i just love HP soaping... But I'm down to this tomorrow giiilr thank you❤️❤️

Its throwing me off, is there lye in it?

Hi I love all your videos. Thank you for these you are so creative. In making the soap frosting, Can I use a hand mixer instead of a stand mixer? Thanks.

Can you pipe flowers with this recipe? If you get the frosting "soap" on you while decorating will you get burned?
Sodium hydroxide 👍🏻
OK. GOT IT. THANKS SO MUCH.

Thought of something. I’ve seen mp mixed with dish soap as a frosting. Ever heard of that?
th-cam.com/video/wkiyRLIHGr0/w-d-xo.html
m.th-cam.com/video/FqjeezAd5FI/w-d-xo.html
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!
So, it doesn't matter the temperature of lye and oils? Could be different or both at the same?
I love your video thank you very much
Doesn’t matter. Temp of the oils/lye only really affects the soap gelling/heating up. The lye and oils will still make soap regardless. 😊
Hi..would this work in a warm climate? As I'm in malaysia.. Afraid that the frosting with these butters and oil wouldn't hold its shape
Is the soap cal . Is it accurate. It gave me 6.8 for war
Ter and lye 2.23. Did I do itt right. Thanks so much for sharing
Depends on the amount of oils for your batter size entered.
@@LunaFaeCreations it is from your recipe. You mentioned in the video. Thanks
Where can I find the regipe?
Thanks for sharing!! I can’t wait to try this but I’m allergic to Shea butter. Do you think I can just add more cocoa butter and I’ll run it through the lye calculator too?
I think that will work just as well.
Can you put this on soap that was made the day before ? Or do you have to put it on soap that you make the same day.
I do same day but Either would work.
I am trying this recipe out. I had to do more shea butter as I was low on cocoa butter. I have had it in the fridge for 40 mins or so and it isn't hardening back up. Does it, generally, stay in there for hours? Thanks!
I usually pour up the oils the night before and through them in overnight
Firstly thanks for the icing video that's a blessing, Q how long with the icing last before it goes hard, please
It’s still considered cold process soap so it sets up just like any other recipe. It’s just not as dense.
I am very new to soaping and your video is amazing I have one what might be called a silly question but the percentage for super fat what did you use? I am so grateful to have found your channel and will continue to watch your videos you are so helpful thank you so much
Not all. Lol. I use a super fat of 5%
I just wonder... most American soapmakers are using 5%... here in Germany most are doing at least 10%. Or 15% and up. Just wondering why.
What is the % of lye that you recomend for this?
Hi Tierra! I loved this video. I wrote down the measurements you used for the oils. It says 35% for the water solution. How much lye and water did you use? Thank you!!!
You’ll need to enter the percentages in to a soap calc to determine the amount of lye you’ll need for the size batch you plan to do. 👍🏻
Please for your fluffy icing how much water and lye in oz s is it if you don't mind sharing??
enjoyed your video, very informative, can icing be frozen for later use?
Nooo. It’ll eventually harden up and become solid soap
ohhhhh ok, thanks
