When I was little my mother sent me to collect hazelnuts under the trees in the lawn of my house, because being a child I slipped well under the branches ... alone I was bored, but if there was someone with me (my younger sister or my father, often) it became a challenge to whoever collected more hazelnuts, and it was immediately much more fun!
I wanted a soap with hazelnuts, precisely those from my parents' house, which I now collect together with my partner when we go to lunch on Sunday (also because in the meantime 25 years have passed, and my poor mother certainly can't get herself down in all fours under the hazelnuts!) and I wanted it to taste like chocolate too, because chocolate with hazelnuts has always been my father's weakness. And I also wanted it to taste a little like honey, because as a child I loved when Maurizio who has bees brought us the honeycombs with honey, and we had to put everything in our mouth and then spit out the wax (with which I then played as with the modeling clay!).
And so, thinking about the things in my home, when I was little, I created a very sweet soap, which smells of good things!
Preparation
Hot method.
I poured the light mixture, and then I added spoonful of the dark dough on top, trying not to mix them too much (I didn't want a marbled effect but an effect with two distinct "flavors".
How to use
Use as a normal soap.
