I was browsing the net and came across this super yummy recipe for Lime Coconut Cheesecake.
Right away I start thinking of the soaping possibilities. I rarely plan batches of soap out, but I worked on this one for a couple of days before settling on a design. At one point I even considered pulling out my spring form pan do try to mimic the actual dessert. I decided to go with the loaf though...
This batch is scented with a non-discoloring Key Lime Pie (Southern Soapers) fragrance oil. I had some leftover end cuts from a batch of Island Coconut (Brambleberry) CP Soap and since that batch did discolor to a pretty goldenish color, it was perfect for the toasted coconut required for the recipe. I used Wilton's 2D tip to pipe some whipped CP soap for the whipped cream portion. Finally, I topped it with real lime zest for garnish.
They look good enough to eat! I love all the details.
ReplyDeletegood lord! do you have a magic wand to do that?! I want one! Fancy doing a swap soon? My Midnight Marauder will be ready in about a week.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to do swapsies if you're up for it.
