Why did my layers fall apart when I unmoulded?
There are a couple of things to check if your layers peel apart when you are unmoulding or slicing the soap. • You either forgot to spritz with Isopropyl Alcohol, or didn’t use enough Alcohol to “glue” the new layer to the one underneath. So liberally spritz that alcohol! • You may have allowed the previous layer to get too cold before the next pour. The first layer should still be warm when the next layer is poured. Timing and temperature is the key to working with layered soaps. Allow each layer to form a skin solid enough to hold the heat and weight of the new layer before pouring the next layer. Use your finger to “test” the strength of the skin before doing the overpour.
