This month the Great Cakes Soap Challenge by Amy Warden has a theme of Rainbows and Unicorns. This is my entry. It was made by piping the design in layers and pouring soap batter in and around.
The soap is unscented, and uses all natural colorants - annatto seed, paprika, rose clay, alkanet root and sea clay. Lots of fun to make this one!

Those are some incredible natural rainbow colors!! I love how you put it all together - that must have taken a lot of planning to get it worked out. So neat!!

Thank you Debi! I prefer the natural plant colorants, and it was a challenge with this theme. But, they came out cute :)

I like the natural colors that you have used, they are nice and bright! This looks like a challenging technique as well. Very pretty!

Cheryl, thank you! And, yes, I had a difficult time with the piping. Of course, not all the colors decided to solidify at the same rate, which really was certainly problematic. Unfortunately, the black got hard pretty quickly, and it did not want to pipe through the small tip. Was able to get it completed sufficiently enough though :)
