This recipe is a long-standing favourite from one of our in-house DIY Classes.
We like to call these melts “kisses” because of the delightful way they fizz and dance across the surface of the water. They pamper your skin with moisturizing cocoa butter and invigorating aromas.
Makes an elegant and simple gift or a luxurious addition to your self-care bath time routine.
