Coffee, chocolate and salt soaps.

www.tikasoapperu.com and www.tikatrek.com are bringing you the next installment on the soap mission.
After waiting the weekend we could finally open our little test items that consisted of 6 different tests.
One chocolate with real chocolate, one coffee made with real coffee essence, and our salt experiments that consist of the following.
Straight table salt, less weighty, it is whiter than the other tests.
Mix Maras pink salt and table salt, also white in colour, a lot harder than the rest.
Ground pink Maras salt, my favourite out of all the salt soaps.
Fresh pink Maras salt, crumbles very easily, however makes a very pretty soap, time will be the real test.

So I think we will be advising our client of the findings and let him know what we have decided.
The chocolate and coffee soaps have turned out wonderfully they smell fabulous and have a decidedly softer feel about them.

In addition over the weekend we headed to our friends house which is very close to Maras, he has given us some clay from Maras to see what we can do with it.

First attempts say that this clay is excellent for exfoliating and also for removing impurities from the skin. We are also going to see if we can put some of the clay into a soap bar. Fun days to come.
