- Today I'm making two soaps, one with avocado and coconut milk and the other with mango and coconut milk.
The fruit and milk add and some extra fats and sugar to the soap creating a luxurious bubbly bar.

Although my cold process soap making tutorials are of a tutorial nature, they are intended for people who have a good understanding of making cold process soap. The information given is based on what works for me, however, there are lots of variables associated with cold process soap making and I therefore, take no responsibility for the results achieved when using the techniques or methods explained in these tutorials. Cold process soap involves the necessary use of sodium Hydroxide (lye) which is a very dangerous substance. Before attempting and cold process soap making you should ensure you are fully aware of the lye safety procedures and always wear the correct safety equipment when making soap.

Another wonderful video! And I’m dying from the cuteness of the little avocado embeds!
That's so kind of you to say Paula, thank you so much 😊
Me too, I love miniatures! My mum randomly got sent two avocados by Tesco recently. We never buy them!
Gorgeous soaps, as always. You are an inspiration to beginner soapers like me!
AW that's lovely to hear, thank you so much Marie-Eve , and thank you for taking the time to leave a comment for me 😊
You are an excellent teacher. And u make some loovely soaps
That's so kind of you to say Lady Purple, thank you so much 😊
Amazing as always! The little avocados are absolutely adorable!
Thanks so much! 😊
Thank you so much, Lisa!
Again, I've learned something more about soaping.
Love the tiny avocados!
You are so welcome, I'm so pleased you found it useful
IS that coconut Milk or creame?! Sorry I see that is milk but i'm wondering how come is so creamy looking🤔And I'm very interesting if these bar of soaps are creamy, couse i'm looking for creamy silk bar that are not drying for the skin and I want to try to make soap with avokado for so long, because it seems to me that it could be nourishing for the skin.. any suggestion? Thank you so much❤️❤️
Wonderfull video as always, you are truly a biig artist😇❤️
Warm hugs from Slovenija🤗🤗🥰🥰
It is coconut milk but a very high percentage of coconut, it had 75%. Adding milks will help give a creamy bat, adding the fruit will increase sugar and therefore bubbles
Hey Lisa! Another wonderful and awesome video! Love the 🥑 on top! Normally I do not like videos with music but the music you have chosen is pleasant and relaxing to listen to while watching you work. I don’t know if you can chose any music so I would like to make a suggestion. You don’t have to use it but my suggestion is Christina Perri. One of her songs is called A Thousand Years. It was the only one that I knew of until I looked her up and listen to some of her music and I think you just might like it also. Looking forward to your next video! Thanks for making them!!!
HI, lovely as always to see you. Ooh thank you for the music info, I'm always on the lookout for nice bits of music, I will check that out.
Yea))) that its more than like a video!!))
And the music and the over voice
It's all better than the best, I'll would like say in Russian. (Language)
Enjoyed
Thanks Karen :-)
Wonderful video, Lisa! I've always been pondering about adding fruits to my soap. Thanks for sharing! Your soap turned out delightful 💕🥑
Hi Shonna, ooh have a go it's nice and easy as long as the fruit is blended really well, always lovely to see you
Fantastic video, I love how you explain everything so clearly. When I saw this recipe from Tania & Scot I wasn’t very keen. Now that I have watched your video, I am inspired to give it a go. Can I ask, did you make the miniature avocados with some of the mixture (using the same recipe)?
HI, thanks so much. yes the avocados are made from exactly the same recipe. I made some soap dough using the recipe, but no essential oil. Then when I used the soap dough I kept track of how much I used so that I knew how much clay I had used in the avocados. Then when I made up the soap for my base the clays that I used for colouring were adjusted for what had been used in the soap dough avocados to make sure everything stayed in the same %s for the whole soap.
Wow. You DO strive for perfection. Even in the TINIEST details!!😳🤕💖😘👏👏👏👏👏😘🙀🤯 a TRUE artiste in every sense of the word!👍🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌👏👏👏💖😳
ooh double comment :-)
Those little avocado 🥑 were so adorable. 2 gorgeous bars. Love it!
Thanks so much Lori ! 😊
Very cute fruity soap! And I never thought I'd find an avocado cute either! 🥑🥑🥑🥑🥑
Hi LJ, thank you so much
Those little avocados - awww! They're too cute!
Is the mango still kind of noticeable in the final soap, or does its scent vanish completely during the soaping process?
Thanks so much, no, just like most things you put in the soap you won't notice the actual thing, but will get the benefit from the sugars it adds to the soap
Your soaps look great and I always appreciate your sharing your knowledge. How do you keep the citrus essential oil scent from dissipating?
Thank you, citrus is so tricky. I use 10 fold orange in the orange one (can't seem to find folded lemon or lime that doesn't cost a fortune) the orange sticks brilliantly, for others I mix with the clay and allow to sit to help a little bit, but it is tricky
Good time / nice time in the day .. Lisa. As well I am excited about your video, how you are making soap))) How everything was done, filmed and shown.. as well instruction)))
Thank you very much for this new video, best regards from Thorsten from Minsk/Belarus
Thank you so much, so nice to see you again Thorsten :-)
Wonderful! Love your cute little avocado. ❤️
Thank you! 😊
Hi Lisa.... One day when I grow up I hope to make the soap that you do😁😊 I've made my 3rd bar of soap so I'm still a baby at this craft, I'm battling with temperature because I melt my hard oil but when it's time to stick blend, it clumps up in my stick blender... What was the lye VS oil temperature for these soaps? Thank you for the inspiration... Your amazing
Lovely soap as always! The teeenyweeny itsy bitsy comments always get me!
Thank you honey :-)
Thank you for posting such an awesome content all the time. I have been wondering doesn’t the purees makes the soap go bad on time?
Can I use Citric Acid in lye water with this recipe??
Mango soap looks like fire 🔥
Hi Katarzyna thank you so much - oooh Fire! 😊
OMGOODNESS those are both fabulous Lisa!!! Love, love, love your videos!!! I think I’m going to try using fruit now thank you! 😁
Thanks a lot Barbara, ooh I hope you have fun
Just subscribed to you channel...very informative video...thanks
Thank you so much SeaLane Crafts, and welcome new subscriber, I'm so pleased you have subscribed. I hope you enjoy my channel 😊
Doesn't it crack with the heat?
Yummy congrats Yummy...hungry girl..lol 😆 God bless you so Adorable
He, he, thank you - don't eat the soap!! :-)
Absolutely beautiful beautiful soaps.. love the little avocados on top. Simply wonderful.. thank you for the recipe too.. . I tried. salt bars with your recipe , which i tweaked a bit and the outcome was a delightful dropswirl which i never thought possible with a salt coconut milk bar..thank you thank you thank you ❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹
You are so welcome! Lovely to see you again Sunitta
@@IDreamInSoap I will definitely buy loads of stuff when I am in the uk or when my aunt and uncle are coming over ,, 🥰🥰
@@IDreamInSoap I use freshly dried spinach infused in oil. It has a beautiful dark green. And ofcourse the colour fades over time in soaps 😊
Wow. You DO strive for perfection. Even in the TINIEST details!!😳🤕💖😘👏👏👏👏👏😘🙀🤯 a TRUE artiste in every sense of the word!👍🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌👏👏👏💖😳and YET, You still remain within the bounds of this mysterious "assessment" business(complete mystery to those of us here in N.A.....????🤪🤯👏👏👍 better you than me, friend. Just blows my mind and takes almost all the fun out of the fun out of the creative process.
One day you are going to have to add your actual name to a comment, so I can at least say hello xxxxxx, yes the assessments can be draining, at times I sit down to plana soap and it just gets so complicated to be able to do what you want, o well
Such a clever use of ingredients to influence the colours!! And omg those mini avocados are adorable! Gorgeous soap as always! Thanks!
Hello again Beck it's always lovely to see you, so pleased you liked the video, and thanks so much for popping by
Those avocados are so cute!! Fabulous soap!
Thanks so much Ellen 😊
Oh my gosh. These are so gorgeous. You are amazing. I love your videos and you are so informative and positive. Thank you so much for all that you do. X from Australia.
Thank you so much comebackarabella, that's very kind of you.
Hi Lisa! How long did you let these bars sit before cutting and how long did you let them cure? Wondering what the difference might be since there is fresh fruit and how much that (or doesn't) affect(s) the cure time.
Thank you! :)
I let them sit for 2 days to cut as they were a bit soft due to the higher olive oil than I normally use and no sodium lactate. For the cure, again as the recipe has quite a bit of olive oil I haven't put them up for sale yet. I will be listing them in this upcoming shop release, so that will be a 3 month cure
Wonderful as always.. good to know I am adding fruits and purees correctly!
Thank you so much Smithfield Valley Soaps, that's very kind of you.
As you were making the first soap, I was trying to figure out how it matched the thumbnail! Once you started making the second soap I finally had the Ah ha! moment 😂
Another great video, and soaps!
He, he, sorry to confuse you there :-)
Hello very good video, is that his soaps are better than mine?
cordially
Thank you so much, not sure what you mean by his soaps better than mine?
You are super talented and knowledgeable! Your channel seriously deserves to have a lot more subscribers
Thank you so much Gigi😀
@@IDreamInSoap 💙💖🌹
Lovely, I am huge fan of of all natural soaps🌼
So pleased you liked them, thanks so much Barbara
I've never tried mango, but I think I have to now! Avocado makes a wonderful bar! It's one of my favorites. Love these, Lisa!
Hi Again Mandy, lovely to see you, ooh yes give the mango a go
Hi Lisa....I bought this assessment couple weeks ago and have been making them since last week. Love the recipe....never soaped with some of these fruits.... was amazed when the mixed berries turned the batter really really green initially 😱....but all up to now have turned out as lovely soaps.... last is the 2 rhubarb and the unscented mango tomorrow. Thanks for the video take care x
HI Tracey, ooh I haven't tried the berries, they sound fun. I hope the others turn out well too
Hey Lisa....all turned out great.....both pineapple accelerated rapid on my recipe but they were OK, not the design I would have liked to do or the colours, but still a lovely soap
Good idea and good soap video:)💗💗💗
Hi SHAN SOAP and ENJOY LIFE thank you so much for your very kind comment 😊
Those little avocados are adorable! I love them both but the avocado one is my favourite
I think it is amazing how you manage to work with all the strict guidelines you guys have.
Thank you so much Keeley, it can be a pain for sure
Gorgeous! And since I live in South Florida, (I feel) this was made especially for me. I am a lover of mango and avocado!
I though you lot had all the oranges !!!
@@IDreamInSoap Yes, those also - we have orange groves just up the highway from us.
Fab video Lisa 🥰...I've finally worked out how to add a comment! 😂
Yay, hello Tania - ooh look at you all UA-cam literate :-)

شكرا جزيلا
Oh I am quite partial to pointy layers and drop swirls, Lisa, and to using clays! So I find these soaps beautiful and very interesting. I do love your avocados, but far too much work for beginner me😉 Thank you so much for the inspiration for my next soap, and for being such a great teacher! I would love to attend a soap class taught by you. 🙏🏼❤️
That's so kind of you to say Mag , thank you so much for always being so supportive😊
I looove the Avacado soap!
Thank you so much Leah, that's very kind of you.

Hi again Nilza thank you so much for your very kind comment 😊
This is a fantastic tutorial Lisa ... and beautiful soaps .... thanks and congratulations 🎉
That's so kind of you to say Teresa, thank you so much 😊
These two soap were beautifully made i love the drop layered method because it gave the impression of something being dropped in water with a splash from the inside but the outside looks just like your regular layered soap and the Avocado on the top of the other one along with the Colors blended perfect the match was perfect 👌 well done and thanks for sharing as always
That's so kind of you to say rhadika22, thank you so much 😊
