On to the recipe:
Ingredients you will need:2 lbs. Foaming Bath Butter
1 ounce fragrance
2 ounces of an emollient liquid oil
Iridescent Shredded Glitter
Cappuccino Mica
1 to 2 pounds of Sugar
Tools:
Place your Foaming Bath Butter, fragrance, and oil in the bowl. I like to do 1 pound of FBB (Foaming Bath Butter) to 1 ounce of liquid oil. Sweet Almond Oil, Avocado Oil, and Olive Oil all work well to soften the FBB up.
Step 2Mix on low until the FBB is smooth, then switch to high to whip up the butter. Whip until fluffy - this usually just takes a couple of minutes.
Be sure you don't overwhip the Foaming Bath Butter or it can deflate like a souffle. I'm wearing gloves just to keep my hands clean but you don't need to if you don't mind a little extra FBB on your hands.
Step 3Stir in the sugar by hand. We used a slightly coarser grade of unbleached sugar but regular granulated sugar works fine. When stirring in the sugar by hand, it's more of a folding. The mixture is thick enough to suspend the sugar and make it into a dense whipped cream feel.
Check in tomorrow for how to add color and do a fancy layered look in the final jar.
