A while back, their custom potato soap molds were producing some puzzling looking soaps (see our blog post here and Duane and Nancy's here). They were having some problems with the new silicone mold itself as well as their recipe. So we pooled the soaping community together and asked for suggestions to be posted on their blog, Squeeky Clean. Thanks to some fabulous suggestions by fellow soapers, their soap is back and better than ever.
The infamous and custom spud molds.
Fresh out of the mold.
The final products- aren't they "spud-tacular"? Duane and Nancy's number one selling Spud Soap is made with real potato that is soothing to the skin, molded into the shape of a potato and has actual "eyes".A note from Duane and Nancy: "After finally tweaking our recipe by reducing some of the Crisco and replacing it with the Palm Kernel Oil, we have achieved a soap that pops out of the mold with very little cleanup needed. We also have increased the temperatures from 120 to 140 degrees. That has helped to stabilize the purple color in our huckleberry spud soaps. We appreciate the time everyone took to give us suggestions and opinions as to what to try."
