Preventing Soda Ash In Soap Making

by | published

If you make cold process soap, there’s a good chance you’ve seen soda ash appear at some point in time. You know… that uneven, white, ashy looking film that pops up on the surface of your bars?

Now if you’re anything like us, the only time we want to feel a crumbly texture is in cookies, so let's follow along with Mel and learn what can be done to avoid soda ash.

Happy Making! 😊
