Fyi, a question/answer from the FDA regarding food labeling requirements: Question: If a food consists of honey and a sweetener, such as sugar or corn syrup, can I label the food as only “honey”? Answer: No. A product consisting of honey and a sweetener cannot be labeled with the common or usual name “honey” because “[t]he common or usual name of a food . . . shall accurately identify or describe . . . the basic nature of the food or its characterizing properties or ingredients” (21 CFR 102.5(a)). So - if something is labeled as “honey”, it must be entirely honey with no additional ingredients. If other ingredients are added, the product must be labeled as such, examples: “blend of corn syrup and honey” and “honey with raspberry flavoring”. So - if you buy a product labeled “honey” then you can properly assume that you are getting only honey. Names like “wildflower honey” and “raw honey” are acceptable, as the descriptor identifies the source or type of honey, NOT additional ingredients.)
@@mandyheart8754 That may be the FDA rule but it is not a rule they enforce. I've seen it with my own eyes at the stores. Just because it is a rule does not mean the rule is not written in such a way for companies to manipulate the rule or that the rule is in any way enforced.
Its because it depends on how much honey you add to your soap. I think the max amount of honey you can add to a recipe before the finished soap bars get wonky (cures sticky like Katie mentioned in that vid) is 5% of honey per pound of the oil weight. Notice in the very beginning of the vid how small the container of honey is, compared to the lye water container right after.
Oh no! Why are you doing that “influencer voice”!? It’s the cadence and intonation ups and downs. Yuck! 🤢🤮 It’s off-putting and starts to sound like that computer woman voice that some content creators use (where the computer lady voice does a voice over? I don’t know video editing terms…). In long-form videos you speak naturally, which gives a comfortable, inviting, “just watching a friend make soap, chill vibe. Maybe there’s some legit reason that you speak like that in shorts… but if not, and you were unaware, now you’re aware! Ask viewers and do a poll to see what others think about that voice.
The first sentence always begins with “blah blah blah blah , LOW PITCH BLAH BLAH”and ends with a question where “blah blah blah HIGH PITCH BLAH BLAH?” The question part is SO identifiable as “social media video short voice). ALWAYS a question at the beginning or end (often at beginning and end). “Why does blah blah blah? Let’s find out” “Would you blah blah blah? I’ll show you how.” “Where do blah blah blah? We’re about to track it down.” “How can blah blah blah? You’ll never believe what you’re about to see.” AND ALWAYS! Voice pitch goes up at the end of the question. Goes down at the end of the second sentence. Icky!!
Can we get the honey scent in a lotion? 🙏🏻 The soap, candles and hair bars aren’t enough for this divine scent! 😬💛🍯
Bought 3 bars! Some for gifts, mostly for me! Hoping the candles come back in stock!!!
Beautiful. Can hardly wait to get one. ❤🐝
Literally my favorite soap that you make!
This sounds so lovely!❤❤
Oh wow! I love those gorgeous gold layers!
Is it raw honey? Or cut with syrups?
Raw honey!!! Pricey but WORTH IT!!!

Question... What does that have to do with this? @@mandyheart8754

That’s what I use in my soaps too- but I make soap for personal use only!

I put honey in all my melt and pour soaps
SO EXCITED for the cardboard boxes
But didn't you condem a 5 minute craft for this? Because the honey made it sticky? Why is thia different/better?🤔
This was my first thought too….

@@kaitlyndouglas252 Plus, they were adding it to melt and pour soap. Cold process soap is a bit different.
@@Citrusbaka oh! I hadn't thought of that.thats pretty cool then 83.
With melt and pour not cold processed
Little bulky katrina kaif
Does this smell anything like the coco shea honey line from bbw? They discontinued it and I've been trying to find a replacement for YEARS🥲
