CP and individual molds question

[Guest guest]

Alice, I have both kinds of molds, and have used them for CP and candles( no

hotter than 160 or so) I am not sure what you mean by clamshell, but I have

used the clear and blue 2 piece molds. R

OK, sorry for the cross post for those whom are on other lists with me. I

hope to get some great tips and yes/no's on this question.

I have many molds that are individual and cavity molds. Alot are a heavy

clear plastic (cannot say for sure if all are soap molds) and some are blue

plastic (which seems a lighter plastic then the clear ones)! I also have some

rectangle " pour and go " clamshells that I bought when I first was thinking of

soaping. The lady whom I bought them from did M & P in them, but since she did

not do CP, she could not say if they were safe or not.

I am wondering, can we use these plastic molds for CP soaps? If so, is here

a best way to do it? Or a best recipe to use? I would like to make some

" decorative " soaps for my little one (she gets diaper rash alot) and also for

others. The ONLY time I used these decorative molds was for HP (crockpot

method) that I did, and they worked great for that.

ANY and ALL help would be SO greatly appreciated! Thanks. If you wish, you

can answer me offlist at alicez@...

I don't know what other people's experience is, but I've had a heck of a

time getting CP soap out of clear plastic molds made for M & P (the kind sold

at 's). Now I use those molds for lotion bars.

Put them in the freezer for a while. It works, but be careful, they crack

easy. It also shortens the life of the molds. R.
