Tequila Sunrise MP Loaf Soap Recipe

LAYER 1: To a microwave-safe measuring cup, add 7.25 oz. of cut up, clear soap. Heat in microwave until melted.

Mix in the first color - 6 drops of Stained Glass Santa Red Liquid Color. Stir until color has been completely incorporated. Add 7 ml of Mango Sorbet Fragrance Oil and blend in.

Place the silicone Tall & Skinny Loaf Mold on a large cookie sheet. This will give the mold stability should it need to be moved.

Pour soap into mold and spritz with rubbing alcohol to release any air bubbles that may occur. Let set up until the soap has completely hardened.

LAYER 2: To microwave-safe measuring cup, add 14.87 oz. of cut up clear soap. Heat in microwave until soap has melted.

Mix in the second color, 8 drops of Stained Glass Citrus Orange Liquid Color and mix until color has incorporated into melted soap. Add 9 ml of fragrance oil and blend in.

Allow soap to cool down to 125°F.

Spritz bottom layer of soap generously with rubbing alcohol to insure the layers adhere to each other.

Pour melted soap into mold and let soap set up.

LAYER 3: To microwave-safe measuring cup, add 12.8 oz. of cut up clear soap and 1.35 oz. of white soap. Heat in microwave until soap has melted.

Mix in the third color - 8 drops of Stained Glass Lemon Yellow Liquid Color and stir until color is incorporated. Add 9 ml of fragrance and blend thoroughly into melted soap. Again, allow the soap to cool down to 125°F.

Spritz second layer of soap generously with alcohol. Pour soap into mold and spritz top of melted soap with alcohol. Let soap completely set up.

ORANGE SLICES: To a microwave-safe measuring cup, add 4 oz. of cut up, clear soap. Heat in microwave until soap has melted.

Add 6 drops of Stained Glass Sunflower Orange Liquid Color and stir. Add 1 ml of fragrance oil and blend in.

Pour soap into Citrus Guest Soap Mold filling only the bottom of each soap cavity. We filled ours just to the second ring above the citrus slice. There should be enough soap to fill all 8 cavities.

When soap has hardened, remove from mold and set aside for finishing off the top of the loaf.

You will need to mark the silicone mold where the citrus slices will be placed. Place the ruler down the length of the mold. From the inside of one end, measure out 1/2" and make a mark. Then, make a mark every inch after that until you reach the other end of the loaf mold. You will place a citrus slice where each mark has been placed.

To a microwave-safe measuring cup, add 6.25 oz. of cut up white soap. Heat in microwave until melted.

Mix in 2 drops of Stained Glass Lemon Yellow Liquid Color and 2.5 ml of fragrance. Stir well.

Using a hand mixer, mix soap until it thickens a bit and becomes frothy. Immediately, pour soap over the top of loaf.

Working quickly, spritz orange slices with alcohol. Then place the first slice standing up in the soap starting at the 1/2" mark. This first slice should be placed backwards. The rest of the slices will be facing toward you. Spritz and place the next slice on the opposite side of the mold at the next mark which will be a 1" mark.

Continue in this manner, zig-zagging back and forth from one side to the other until the last slice is placed at the 1/2" mark on the other end. Let soap completely harden.

Remove from mold, and using a mitre box, if available, slice loaf into bars using the wavy soap cutter.

If desired, place one soap slice into a cello bag and tie with ribbon.

Label product accordingly.
