Coconut Milk Marble Bars (Recipe)

Base idea: simple white bar with elegant gray marbling, soft coconut scent.

Ingredients:

• 500 g coconut milk melt-and-pour base (or a regular white base)
• 5–8 g coconut fragrance oil
• Optional: 1–2 g almond fragrance oil for a sweet twist
• ¼ tsp gray mica or activated charcoal, dispersed in 1–2 tsp glycerin or a little melted soap

Marble steps:

1. Melt the base and stir in the coconut (and almond, if using) fragrance.
2. Pour most of the plain white soap into your mold, leaving a small amount (about 50–75 g) in the jug.
3. Mix the gray mica or charcoal mixture into that small reserved portion.
4. Drizzle the gray soap over the surface in thin lines.
5. Use a skewer or toothpick to gently swirl the top in loose, random patterns.
6. Spritz with alcohol and let set.

(Keep charcoal/mica modest so the bar stays mostly white and doesn’t stain washcloths.)
