Worlds Simplest Fizzy Bath Bombs Using Kitchen Ingredients Recipes

Steps:

• Mix together well a small amount of baking soda, food coloring and 10-20 drops of fragrance oil in a bowl.
• Add this mixture to the remaining baking soda, citric acid, and corn starch (and flower petals, if using).
• Mix well.
• Spritz the mixture with water while mixing with your hands.
• Keep spritzing and mixing until a handful, when squeezed, keeps its shape.
• DO NOT ADD TOO MUCH WATER.
• Press the mixture firmly into your mold (try plain 2" round chocolate molds).
• Do not use molds that are large, nor those that have intricate detail- they will break.
• Pop out of mold immediately (be careful not to break it.) Let it dry overnight.
• The bath bomb will grow slightly when drying.
• Store by wrapping individually, or store in a jar with a tight lid.

Steps:

• Begin by adding dry ingredients together. Get lumps out of Citric acid and cornstarch either by sifting or stirring down.
• Melt the Cocoa butter and mix with the almond oil, the food color and the Fragrance Oil (OR Essential Oil). Drizzle into the dry ingredients in order to "bind" the dry ingredients together and mush with a fork until it is mixed very well. You want a consistency where the mixture "starts" to cling together when pressed together to form a ball.
• Now is time to pack into molds (Soap and candy molds work great for this, but try to avoid any that have a very shallow surface area which would be too weak to stand up to being handled, such as small leaves or petal tips, etc.) Pack the mixture down very hard and put the molds into the freezer for about 2 hours.
• Remove the molds from the freezer, pop the bombs out and put them on a sheet of parchment paper. Leave them to dry out completely for 2-3 days.
