I had to have a full hystorectomy a couple of years ago in my 30s i went straight in to the menopause after operation and I can honestly say I've never felt so depressed in my life. If I didn't have my son i feel like I would of done something stupid. HRT was a lifesaver for me but they've taken it off me again because I'm having trouble with blood pressure and heart. Watching these videos keeps me sane. X
I hope you get better soon, bless you
Hi Caroline! Just read your comment and wanted to tell ya to hang in there girlie! I have CRPS in both my legs and live with chronic pain 24/7 - 365. Ugh! I also have BP issues as well and other medical issues to boot. Life will throw us some curve balls but keep pushing forward! I tell myself this everyday and it isn't easy. Hope you get to feeling better soon. Hugs from Texas!! : ) xx
Blessings to you ❤
Thanks so much Caroline....you are what I call one of my "Pain Warrior" sista's!! ; ) Xxxx
Caroline Robertson Ive been begging my gynaecologist for a hysterectomy for the past 8yrs since losing our daughter to SIDS & Triploidy and my cervical cancer stage 3 iv had twice in 8yrs, iv tied my tubes 4yrs ago and altogether iv lost 21 babies but I do have 2 boys that came into the world early, iv been medically induced into menopause twice in 8yrs and I have Endometriosis. I’m sick of being on Fentanyl patches and depression pills, I just took myself off diazepam gradually as I’m a nurse myself and know how to do it.
I took a break from watching all my favorite UA-cam channels in order to immerse myself in everything wedding and Royal. Now that I've had my dose of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex I'm ready to get back into watching my favorite soap makers and being inspired. And this was my first video back in and a fantastic video it is. Thank you for making them. -Alicia NYC
Hope you enjoyed the wedding. I got caught up in it too. Thanks for watching from NYC
Thank you for talking about menopause! I have been going through pre-menopause for about six years. I am now 50 and starting to see full menopause but it’s been rough through the full six years and getting worse. Thanks again for making that comment and letting us all know we’re not crazy and alone LOL
I love how you and John tease each other.
I have been binge watching all of your videos and absolutely love your accent. Your soaps are gorgeous. Thanks for sharing your expertise. Hugs from the US
Hello from Indiana, these are my favorite. The colors are perfect! Glad your feeling better. Hope you watched the wedding yesterday! I am so happy for Prince Harry and Megan! Keep those videos coming my Sunday mornings with Karen I look forward to.
I did watch the wedding, beautiful day for it
Hello from Northern Indiana too, Pat (I'm in Warsaw). So nice to see other Hoosiers nearby.
Bob and Carrie Kennedy I have friends up there! Small world.
These are so beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
Karen, your voice is so soothing. My gosh, I love ❤️ it. You’re work is stupendous 👌🏽
They turned out just lovely. I love the colors of the mica.
Really enjoying your videos. Your hubby sounds like mine. I lock my door when I’m filming my videos and no one is allowed in 😂😂😂
Absolutely beautiful. Thanks so much for sharing. Looking forward to the mold making video
Wow they’re absolutely beautiful love the rose on top very pretty. Thanks Karen.💕💕
That topping looks SO YUMMY!
They're beautiful!
They look fantastic!
Good morning Karen! These are just so pretty, love the pale pink with the yellow! I always enjoy your cupcake video's...I mean who doesn't love gorgeous cupcakes?! Lol ; ) I was sitting here laughing to myself when John was trying to give ya a hard time! LOL My pooch Ziggy was looking at me like I was a crazy person! Hahaha It's a very warm morning here in Texas but I'm kicked back in the a/c (thank god) with my coffee enjoying the visit with ya! ; ) The CRPS in my legs keeps me from doing a lot because of the chronic pain but watching video's really helps distract me. Chronic pain 24/7 - 365 is a tough road when there is no end in sight. Depression can be a booger bear and I completely understand how it is to feel like there isn't much in life at times. We got to keep pushing forward...I try and remind myself everyday. I have watched ya for years and you have gotten me through some real bad pain flares. So I have to tell ya my sweet and funny friend, keep bringing the love of your craft and expertise because we do appreciate ya!! Have a wonderful Sunday... hugs and love from Texas!! xoxo : )
Aww Kelly, first I'm sorry you have to go through so much............I know it's difficult, so glad I can give you some joy in your day............ God bless You
Thanks so much Karen...your such a sweet peach!! ; ) Big Hugs from Texas! xxxx
Kelly W. Sending love warrior sister ❣️ I know what you mean about distracting yourself with videos, all those days I just couldn’t do anything thank god I had the ability to sit and watch soaping here :) big hugs much love and breathe easy hun x
Sending LOVE and HUGS back to ya pain warrior sister...hope your feeling well. xoxo
Great job! 😊 Very pretty cupcakes. Thank you for the video. Enjoy watching and listening to you.
love the colors in these. Beautiful 💜❤💜
Got my soap and bath products today!!!! They smell SO good. Thank you. I am using them for gifts. They are beautiful. 😊
Well good morning to you. I am actually listening to you giving some advise and tips on your UA-cam video. You are an amazing lady and I thank God I started following you. Soaping to me seem to be such a very good business to get into, but one day I happen to listen to a soap maker on UA-cam bash another soaper and I was amazed how could one do such a thing to another person when the entire world is full of people who can buy soaps from her too. Anyway you are blessed keep up the good work you certainly encourage me a lot with your recipes and your instructions. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
These look delicious!
I'm waiting for my cupcake molds to come this week. Very excited to make soap with them.
Came out beautiful love the colors,inspiring me to make cupcake but my never come out that good. Thanks for sharing.
You are so so talented! Absolutely love you sharing your days with us!

So happy to find your channel. You're awesome, down to earth. Thank you for sharing your wisdom!
Those are beautiful! You've inspired me!
These cupcakes look so amazing Karen! And the banter between you and John gave me a laugh. :)
Oh the love. Sounds like my husband and I. LOL!!!

I could listen to you speak all day long!! Love your videos so much :-)
Beautiful! You do such detailed and multilevel work, and it comes out so lovely. You can really see your years of hard work and experience in soaps like these.
I'm lucky this time they worked x

I have not ventured into the world of soap cupcakes. Your tips were very helpful. Thank you.
The proper name for this particular spoon is Parfait.
Oh Parfait........ thanks
Absolutely lovely! I just love watching your videos when make these. You do a wonderful job 🤗
P.S I started pre menopause in my 20s and now in my 30s and partial hysterectomy after the loss of our baby in 2014 in full menopause mode. It's been so hard on me. We haven't been able to conceive again. My last pregnancy was a ectopic pregnancy at 8 weeks. Till this day i cry often about it. The depression is worse after many years trying and the stick reads negative. Heartbreaking. 💔
Oh God Bless you hun..........
Those look tasty! You're very talented!
Thanks for watching & commenting George
Great job as always hun. I’m very much looking forward to the mould making video I really want to do that myself, as we are both in England I may actually be able to follow your guidance yay! I wanted to join your giveaway but couldn’t find the video for it xx
Meno ain't no joke~ ! Thankfully I had new grands so that helped but I was exhausted ALL the time. My kids used to call me the energizer bunny so it really affected me with depression as well. wow, anyhoo, glad to hear your cheerful voice again!
I'm sorry you were depressed too, the tiredness is enough
Haha, I didn't have time to be depressed long, It was more of a melancholy rather than depression. But I realized what it was and the energizer bunny was off and running again soon! Glad you're back kid!
Wow amazing
Omg a giveaway!! Soap handmade by Karen ! You will have to autograph them !
What a good idea
Thanks so much for the words of encouragement about menopause. Tired is an understatement. :-) Enjoy your videos.
Hope you pick up soon
Wow, can you do the soaps all in melt and pour instead of cold press
Yes I also would love to see that
So pretty 🌸💞🌸
You’re an amazing artist!
Gosh, thanks .........
You're welcome, have a great day.
Beautiful 😍😍
oooh! I love these, Karen! I'm a long-time watcher & was gutted those few years you weren't making videos but so happy you've come back. I cannot believe there are dislikes for this video though
Aww, well thanks for coming back. I wish I'd continued
No, you definitely needed to take time for yourself. Self-care is more important
Hello, fascinating work! Can you please tell us where you order your essential oils? We are looking for bulk quantities.
So so pretty :-)
So pretty. Another little tip I learned when mixing mica in M&P, you can spray the mica pockets with a little rubbing alcohol and it will help break them up so you can stir it in.
Oh thats interesting
I love watching your videos! Glycerin rivers are caused by water and heat... so if you're using a water discount (not full water) and/or not gelling your soaps, you won't get them. If you WANTED them (for a crackled effect), you could add more water to your batches and force gel phase with heat (like wrapping in a towel). :-)
Love the cupcakes, really beautiful. I recently found this cupcake mold on EBay. Haven't had a chance to use them yet, but looking forward to it. I always enjoy your videos, but today was extra. Your husband is so funny, he knew you still had batter to be used and he made sure to tell you. "You have another half one left." As if you didn't realize. He was so funny! Tell him having the Garage done would be a fabulous Christmas present from him. Lol
Thanks Arlene.......wow that would be a great christmas pressie
Ohhhh, they are hard to remove. Good luck if u try, gave mine away.
Hi Miss Karen! You talked about glycerin rivers and mixing your soap by hand before you pour. There is a gal in South Africa named Auntie Clara who has done some wonderful research on the subject. She discovered that using TD and full water in the base, then going through gel phase creates them. I don't know if you water discount your recipe, but this is what she found. If you do a water discount and prevent gel phase it won't happen. I've had a few batches come out with glycerin rivers and although it's just an asthetic thing, most people would prefer not to have them. I do love watching all of your video's and have watched them for quite some time and have to admit you are one of my favorites! You create such lovely soaps and have been an inspiration to many!
Yes, I do a huge water discount........ maybe you could post a link to that video here, it may help someone
auntieclaras.com/2014/05/glycerine-rivers-trying-to-understand-them/ This is the link to Auntie Clara's Blog where she talks about Glycerin Rivers. She has also teamed up with Kevin Dunn who if I'm not mistaken, is a Chemist. Wonderful read on the actual process .....
You and your husband's back n fourth just crack me up!
People have always said that
Glycerin rivers are usually formed in batches with high water and or soaps that get to hot, a lot of people that use TD won’t force gel on a heat pad or cpop to prevent them,
Hello,how do whipped wuth the melt and pour
Hi Karen,how do you do it where they unmould so cleanly like yours do x
What do think would be a good first soap to make? I can't wait to get good enough to make cup cakes! Yours are so beautiful. I know I keep saying that about all of your soaps but it true.
Hi, what is TD and how lond do you wait for the cupcakes to set before adding the frosting? thanks! Just found your page and subscribed. awesome video thanks!
Bahahahaha! You should have your hubby make soap sometime!
Thank you, Karen. Two Questions: Do you ever have any problem with the tops coming off the bottom when you unmold? Also, do you stop your cupcakes from going through gel phase? I'm afraid going through gel phase would have an impact on those pretty tops? Thanks, again.
Is this melt and pour
Eden... I like water dissolvable titanium dioxide personally I have never used the oil titanium dioxide to mix for colors but I do use the titanium dioxide water solubles and they work perfectly! to get a nice super bright pretty white soap what (ratio).. do you use when you measure out your titanium dioxide and your distilled water???? when you mix them both together????
Me too...........TD and water all the way. In this whole batch I used 6 heaped teaspoons (30 soaps)
Hi Karen,Do you buy your colours in the big tubs that you have and if so how much does it cost if you don't mind me asking coz i'm always looking at ways to cut down on costs x
Lovely soaps, as always! You can find those same shape molds on Amazon... in the U.S anyway. I haven’t bought any yet. I’m just starting to dabble with melt and pour but, I’ve always got my eye out for supplies. 😁
The great thing when you are starting out is you can surf the net endlessly looking for goodies. If you can find those molds again, lease could you post the link here.
Hiya Karen,when doing the soap do you subtract the amount of TD you use from the amount of water? x
so beautiful as always..i tried high and low finding those molds,the only ones I could find was mini ones
Yes, I've tried finding them for viewers, but have been unsuccessful
Ikea sells similar ones
Karen, I love your new profile pic 😍 you are gorgeous 🤗
Can you pour some soap in them an use the soap to make new molds with silicone
Those are your prettiest cupcakes, I love them. How is John? Thank you for the video and you sound wonderful. Much love Tara :)
What piping tip did you use? This are fantastic! I might actually try making some!
It is the largest open star in this set:- www.lakeland.co.uk/2233/Professional-Piping-Set---7-Nozzles-and-1-Piping-Bag
Those spoons are called iced tea spoons here in Alabama. Love your creations and how giving you are of your knowledge and years of experience Thank you
Thanks Jenifer......... glad you're enjoying
Well done Karen, could you please show us how you wrap them?
Yes, sure I can....... here is a video I made a few years ago........ ua-cam.com/video/UUJ_WrKppDU/v-deo.html
Long time viewer, love all of your work. You have been a soap sister in my mind for years and I missed you while you were away.
How much batter did you make? How did u keep it so fluid? Can u share the recipe and techniques u use to keep it so fluid?
Thanks Sharon....My recipe is on other videos (just type in search on my video's page) If you reduce the solid oils and add more liquid oils like the olive and sunflower/canola and keep the temperate at room temp, that works for me, hope it does for you too x
Beautiful! Ha ha. Had to laugh, John just mentioned what l was thinking about the leftover lemon in the bowl. The fans don't miss that :)
Oh, go to freshware.com and your silicon cupcake baking cups are there :)
p.s. Love your photo. You look lovely :)
You saw it Cheryl, Oh no..... and I thought I could get away with it this time, lol
Thanks for the link........... those molds are similar and should do for most who are looking for them.
Photoshop
Woohoo ! I am the 1st to like and that is an Ice Tea spoon Karen.
Ice Tea Spoon, hope I can remember that x
Hi Karen,those colours look amazing mixed together,what size nozzles do you use x
I love watching your videos,they are so inspiring and you always have amazing ideas for your soaps x
Bit fed up today,we've had a homing pigeon in our garden for the last two weeks and yesterday it was on our bedroom window outside and ive been trying to get my other half to make me a pigeon house for it,I looked out my window this morning and it wasn't there,im so gutted x
We use those spoons for frappes and ice cream sundaes and floats
Michael's store in the US has something similar to these molds. It is six in one mold and just a tiny bit smaller. Beautiful cupcakes.
If you could, please share a link to the molds, thanks so much
Here is a link for the Micheal's store molds. Hope this will help. Sorry I did not think to share before. www.michaels.com/6-cavity-brioche-silicone-mold-by-celebrate-it/10477407.html#q=silicone+mold&pmpt=qualifying&sz=24&start=44
Just a thought, I know that you can get piping bags somewhere that has a sort of divider inside them but when you pipe out whatever it is (icing, soap etc.) it will still come out as though it was all together, I wonder if that will make things easier. Very pretty though :)
Thanks, Yes, you can get piping bags like that.
Jasmine French u don't need a divider what u can do is get press and seal put one color fold it up twist the bottom then lay out another sheet put ur second color in that fold it up make them thin not cut a small opening on both bottoms and slide them in ur pipping bag side by side and ur color will pipe the way u want it to. It u do it together in the bar it fades the colors into each other like a gorgeous rainbow but if u do this ur colors will be next to each other not faded into rich other the color won't blend ur pink n blue will be pepped side by side and will be 2 very defined colors next yo each other.
Karen how do you mix the td. Is there a specific quantity?
no specific quantity........ in this container I usually put 4 heaped teaspoons, then top up with water, just don't make it too thick
Great I will give it a go. Thanks for replying 🌷
Hello beautiful...when you add titanium dioxide it adds water because you mix it in warm water right? Does that change the hardness of the embeds?
Kim Swanson No, its not enough water to change it
Yes, I add very warm water. It actually doesn't change the hardness of the embeds.
If I make these will surely let you know!
Please do
Why do you like powder better than liquid colours?
"Get Out" LOL!! ;)
Lovely cupcakes!
John's chronic vision problem is called "Man Vision" (Most males of our species suffer from it) ;-)
Man Vision, I'll be using that term on a daily basis from now on xx
Hahaha switch the blender on to hush the husband up lol
