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. Lathanol LAL Powder is a very airborne product. You will need a mask and a contained space when making your finished product.

1. To a large mixing bowl, add all dry ingredients. Gently mix with a wire whisk to incorporate all ingredients.
2. Add fragrance oil to the dry mix and carefully mix together.
3. Add liquid ingredients slowly while kneading ingredients together. The mixture will begin to take on the consistency of dough. When adding the glycerin, start with 3 Tablespoons and continue to add 1 Tablespoon (if necessary) until mixture takes on a doughy consistency. 
4. When the mixture begins to hold together in your hand, split the batch in half. Separate out 10 oz. and add to a 2nd bowl.
5. In the first bowl, add the Stained Glass Lemon Yellow liquid colorant. Mix thoroughly until the color is fully incorporated and no white spots are left.
6. On a sheet of wax paper, roll out the yellow "dough" into a large flat rectangle. It should be about 1/2" thick.
7. Repeat the above step with the white "dough".
8. Lay the white "dough" on top of the yellow and using the wax paper take one side and pull up and over. Pulling the dough real tight, keep rolling the mixture using the wax paper. Make sure not to roll the wax paper into the mixture and be sure to roll with the longest side in front of you.
9. When the "dough" is completely rolled together, the ends will be open so be sure to push them together so that the "dough" looks like a log. Let sit for two hours.
10. Using a soap cutter or dull knife, cut your log into slices. Set out on a cookie sheet to dry for at least 24-48 hours.
11. Wrap them in airtight plastic wrap or some other airtight container.
12. Label product accordingly.

TO USE: Crumble one bubble cake under warm running water and watch as the tub fills up with luxurious bubbles.
