This month's Soap Challenge requires us to make MINI dessert soaps. I usually make my dessert and food soaps with Melt & Pour soap bases and they are often similar in size to the actual food or dessert item. So this is the first time I am making dessert soaps using CP method and in much smaller dimensions.
We were also required to include one food item in all our soaps. I chose food-grade rose water (distilled water and rose extract) recommended by a well-known Indian chef.
I made mini soapy Charlotte Cake, Buttercream Chocolate Cake, Meringue Chevron Cake and Apam Ice Cream Cornetto.

I piped the "sponge fingers" and "meringue" a day ahead.

WHAT A MESS!! I had a really hard time putting the charlotte cake together. Everything was falling a part.
|
Charlotte cake assembly gone quite wrong! |
I almost gave up ... walked away for 10mins to calm myself down and tried again.

My Meringue Chevron Cake soap is inspired by
Haniela's Raspberry Meringue Chevron Cake.

I am a big fan of
Azlita of Sweet & Sour blog. This soapy
Apam Ice Cream Cornetto is inspired by her pancakes that resemble mini ice cream cones!
