Directions:

NOTE: If you are making these products for sale, good manufacturing practices recommend you wear a hairnet, gloves and a mask. We also recommend a clean apron, workspace and sanitized equipment.. The powders used in this recipe become airborne easily making a mask important to wear.

1. To large mixing bowl, add sodium carbonate, bubble cake hardener and lathanol. Blend with wire whisk.
2. Drizzle glycerin, Bubble Up and fragrance over powders. Mix with gloved hands until well incorporated.
3. Remove 3.5 oz. of mixture and place in small bowl. Set aside.
4. To larger bowl, add 1/4 tsp. NuTone Orange powder and blend well with gloved hands until color is completely mixed in.
5. Place one plastic mold on a cookie sheet. Take a small amount of white mixture and pack into the bottom of the first cavity where the stick is placed. Add orange mixture to the top so there is a small amount of white at the bottom to look like a creamsicle.
6. Place a soap pop stick into the mixture embedding half of the stick into the bubble wand. Cover the stick with more mixture and pack firmly. 
7. Continue in this manner until all eight bubble wands are made.
8. Let sit overnight to harden. Turn molds over onto cookie sheet and gently press on each cavity to remove. 
9. Package in poly bags and tie with raffia.
10. Label product accordingly.

To Use: Wave bubble wand back and forth under running water to create bubbles. Let dry between uses. Should last for 2-3 baths depending on how many bubbles are desired.
