Homemade Devine Mint Choc Bath Melts
Crafting bath melts involves the use of regular cocoa butter, yet opting for the dark, organic, and unrefined variety transforms them into chocolate-like treats. Ideal as a thoughtful, low-calorie gift alternative.
It's crucial, however, to attach a "not edible" advisory since their striking resemblance to actual chocolates and their delightful aroma might mislead. Should you desire a simple chocolate appearance, the addition of essential oils can be omitted; nevertheless, mint provides a refreshing option, as does the pleasant scent of sweet orange. Don't hesitate to explore various blends such as geranium and orange, or even rose otto for a lavish Turkish delight essence.
These delightful creations can be fashioned using molds intended for mini guest soaps or chocolates, diverse silicone ice-cube molds with assorted shapes, or even petite fondant cases, allowing your creativity to flourish.
To use the Mint Choc Bath Melts simply drop one into your hot bath. You can use two if you want to feel like you are sitting in a cup of hot chocolate. Mnnnn, lovely.
