Silk & Milk
Undyed and undecorated: goat milk, shea and avocado, nothing else to look at.
The plainest bar in the range, and deliberately so. Liquid goat milk goes into the oils and powdered goat milk on top of that, over an olive, shea and avocado base. No colour, no swirl, no topping. The only thing added for looks is nothing at all. Scented with oatmeal milk and honey and a little cinnamon sugar.
Made to order
None on the shelf right now, so this one is made and cured for your order.
The batch starts once your payment arrives, and ships about four weeks later.
Every bar cures for four weeks, so batches are small and counted.

Notes on the bar
Keep it on a draining dish. A cold-process bar left sitting in water softens and will not last the way it should.
- Scent
-
Oatmeal, milk and honey, with cinnamon sugar
The same warm bakery scent as Golden Oat, with a little cinnamon sugar behind it. Carried by a cosmetic fragrance oil, not an essential oil.
- Texture
-
Plain surface, dense lather
Nothing was added for texture, so the bar is smooth all the way through. A little kaolin clay gives it slip, and stearic acid makes it firm. The lather is creamy and slow rather than airy.
- The base
-
Goat milk twice over
Liquid goat milk goes into the oils and powdered goat milk goes in on top of that, over a base of olive, coconut, shea and avocado. That is what makes it the softest bar in the range, and also what keeps it off the vegan list.
- Origin
-
Cured in Naples, Florida
Cold process, small batch, cured a minimum of four weeks before it leaves the workshop.
How this batch is made
Process
Cold process. No colourant, no swirl and nothing on top: the cream tone is the goat milk itself. This is the one bar in the range where the point is that there is nothing to look at.
