15 grams Mango Papaya Fragrance Oil
10 drops Fun Soap Colorant- Neon Yellow

Total Recipe Weights for the Rind: 
115 grams Diamond Clear Melt and Pour Soap

57 grams Mango Papaya Fragrance Oil
10 drops Fun Soap Colorant- Neon Pink

Step 1:  Prepare your Embeds:  In a microwave safe bowl, weigh out 290 grams of Diamond Clear Melt and Pour Soap.  Melt this soap in the microwave in 30 second increments at a time.  Stir gently.  Keep melting until all the soap is in a liquid state.

Step 2:  Next, add the 10 drops of FUN Soap Colorant Neon Yellow.  Stir well to incorporate.  Once the soap is colored, add the 15 grams of Mango Papaya fragrance oil.  Stir again.  Then, pour the soap into your 1 inch cube mold. Spritz with alcohol if there are any bubbles.  Then, allow this to fully set up.  Set any unused soap aside.

Step 3:  Prepare the Rind:  In a microwave safe bowl, weigh out 115 grams of Diamond Clear Melt and Pour Soap.  Melt.  Once the soap is liquefied, add 8 drops FUN Soap Colorant Neon Green and 6 grams Mango Papaya Fragrance Oil.  Stir to fully incorporate. 

Step 4:  Next, pour the green soap into the square loaf mold.  This will be the rind layer of the soap.  If you have any bubbles in the soap, spritz it with alcohol.  Then, allow to fully set up. 

Step 5:  Once your 1 inch cube mold has set up, place the mold upside down and gently ease the soap cubes out.  Set aside. 

Step 6:  Now, melt the remaining yellow soap once again in the microwave, stir, and refill your cube mold.  Spritz with alcohol to eliminate any bubbles.  Allow this soap to fully set up.

Step 7:  Once the yellow soap has set up again, gently remove the cubes from the mold.  When you have all of the cubes, get your cutting board and knife.  Individually place the cubes on the cutting board and cut them in half (angularly) so that you have 2 oblong triangles per cube.  Cut each cube, and set aside. 

Step 8:  Prepare the Pink:  In your microwave safe bowl, weigh out the 1140 grams of Diamond Clear Melt and Pour Soap.  Melt.  Once all of the soap is in a liquid state,  add the 10 drops FUN Soap Colorant Neon Pink, and 57 grams of Mango Papaya Fragrance.  Stir well to incorporate. 

Step 9:  Once your green soap rind has set up, spritz it well with alcohol.  This step will help to adhere the pink layer to the green one. 

Step 10:  Next, slowly pour all of the pink soap over top of the green soap.  Do not pour the pink soap while it is too hot, or you risk melting your green soap.    

Step 11:  Now, take some of your oblong triangles, and drop them into the soap mold.  If you need to arrange them, use a kabob stick to do so.

Step 12:  Wait for the soap to slightly thicken, then add some more yellow oblong triangles.  Once the soap is in this state, it will be easier to get some of the triangles to stay in the upper portion of the soap. 

Step 13:  Finally, once your soap has a skin, place some of the triangles on top.  Please note: Depending on the thickness of your soap skin, you may have to pierce the soap with your kabob stick and then stick the one corner of the triangle into the opening.

Step 14:  Allow your soap to fully set up before removing from the mold. 

Step 15:  Once the soap has been removed, cut your soap into slices.
