Anatomy Of A Bath Bomb

I love making bath bombs, and judging by the fact that I have big bowls of them in each bathroom in my house, probably a little too much.   But honestly, what's not to love?   They fizz, they smell good, and they look pretty.   A perfect combination!

I have been wanting to make a "candy" bath bomb, using some combination of desert sprinkles or colored sugar.   Two of Bramble Berry's mystery fragrances seemed like the perfect ones for this project.

First up is Mystery Fragrance No. 1, which smells to me like some sort of bakery product, with definite vanilla notes.   I wish that I had a brown color for bath bombs, because this scent feels like a brown. I settled on orange, with some fall leaves thrown on top.  Here is the result:




I think the fragrance seems a bit sweeter in the bath bomb.

Next up is Mystery Fragrance No. 4, which I want to call Candy Apple, but its not quite an apple scent.   Whatever it is, I am loving it!   I have had the bath bombs on my desk while I work, and the scent is just amazing.   I think of it as a red/pink scent ...


The scent smells just as good in the water as it does in the bath bomb!   Here are some pictures of the bath bomb meeting its end:





More fun stuff coming soon ....
