Instructions
  1. Add 1/4 pound of the Melt and Pour Soap into the measuring cup. Melt this in the microwave in 30 second bursts, stirring after each burst. Repeat until it's completely melted.

  2. Mix in the dried orange peel to the melted Melt and Pour Soap.

  3. Pour the soap and orange peel mixture evenly into each of the six cavities of the soap mold. Allow to dry for at least 30 minutes or until the soap has completely hardened.

  4. Add the remainder of the Melt and Pour Soap to the measuring cup. Melt in 30 second bursts, stirring after each burst. Repeat until it's melted completely.

  5. Set aside 1/4 cup of the melted soap. In the remaining soap, mix in the fragrance oil, blue mica powder, and the blue cosmetic glitter.

  6. Spray your soap molds with the rubbing alcohol.

  7. Pour the blue soap mixture into your molds and spray the top of the soap with rubbing alcohol. Allow to harden for at least 3 hours or until firm. Gently remove from the mold when they've firmed up.

  8. Add the whipped soap base and glycerin to a mixing bowl and mix for one minute.

  9. Fold the cornstarch into the mixture, a little bit at a time.

  10. Add the 1/4 cup of Melt and Pour Soap that was set aside to the mixture. Mix for one minute.

  11. Add in the white cosmetic glitter to the mixture and beat the mixture until peaks form. If the frosting doesn't seem thick enough, add a little bit more cornstarch. Mix in thoroughly and repeat until the mixture is firm.

  12. Add the frosting to your piping bag and frosting tip. Spray the soaps with the rubbing alcohol to help the whipped soap adhere to the top. Pipe the frosting onto the soap to look like little waves.

  13. Add the sharks to the top of the whipped soap and press down slightly to ensure that they stay put.
