Sakura cupcake soaps with Recipe & DIY Tutorial

Today I made cupcake soaps using a basic 3-oils recipe that I had formulated.  Normally, my recipe is composed of 7-8 oils but today I reduced it into 3 because I will give it to my friends who requested for a recipe.  I made it as simple as possible so they can follow it (this will be their first time to try cold process soap making).

For the design I used the Rose Russian frosting tip that I bought online. See how easy and how simple it is to produce a nice rose bud design in soaps. I first found this frosting tip used in baking.  When I saw the lady demonstrated on how to use it in her cake decoration, I immediately told myself  that I can also do that in soaps too. I just need to increase my hard oils and make sure that I reach heavy trace so that the consistency would be very thick and just nice for frosting.

After 8 hours, it is ready to unmold.. tada!

Here is the recipe:

I am fine if you would try this recipe on your own. Even if you want to try this to sell your soaps it is also okay with me. Just remember to give credits to me for formulating this soap recipe and sharing it for free. Avoid copying this formula in your blogs and claiming it as your own. Thanks.
