Other Options For This Soap
If pumpkin spice latte isn’t your thing, try scenting these bars with cocoa powder and cinnamon instead. You could even melt in a small amount of shea butter or unrefined cocoa butter if you like. But keep the amount small. A tablespoon of one or the other at most.

Hi, Can I use the goats milk base that is white and not clear? Thanks
Violet – If you mean the melt-and-pour soap base, you can use whichever one you want. Even if it changes the color a bit, it won’t be a bad thing here. It’ll look more like a latte!
