When I do face painting ( weekends gigs), one of my most requested designs from little girls is a unicorn. I have painted so many that I might be able to paint it with my eyes closed! So I thought it would be good to make a unicorn soap as well. Last time I made… Continue reading Unicorn soap
About once a year I get a craving for a cinnamon roll from Cinnabon. (I do not dare making them myself as I believe me capable of eating an entire batch, like I have proven I can do with Brazilian cheese bread.) Earlier this year, I got a different kind of craving, I wanted to… Continue reading Cinnamon Rolls Soap
These are some soaps I made earlier this Spring, inspired by a pop tart I was eating. Something I try not to do often. It was not until a few years ago that I realized how many calories pop tarts have! Sometimes ignorance is indeed bliss. When I was younger I did not have to… Continue reading Breakfast Soaps
Peach cobbler is a popular dessert in the South. There are two ways to make it, one resembles a pie, with a pie crust on top. And another looks like a cake. This latter one is my favorite version. It is usually served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and that was the inspiration… Continue reading Peach Cobbler Soap
Several years ago my family and I went to Schlitterbahn, in New Braunfels, TX. It was a long drive to get there, but it was a fun experience overall.

The year was 2009 and we had visited the Pasadena Strawberry festival with my sisters, then boyfriend (now hubby) and my nephew and niece. I remember getting… Continue reading Strawberry shortcake Soap
When we were kids, my dad would sometimes take us to the ice cream store on a weekend, in El Salvador. We were five children, so it was a fun outing. The name of the store was Pops, and one of my favorite ice creams flavors, besides chocolate, was pistachio. You could say I have… Continue reading Pistachio Macaron Soap
I used to think that “peaches and cream” was just a flavor of oatmeal packets. It turns out it is an actual dessert consisting of peach slices and whipped cream. When I saw its namesake fragrance at Lone Star Candle Supply, I had to buy it. I love everything peach. It was here in the… Continue reading Peaches and Cream Cold Process Soap
