This time I had a great helper, my daughter enjoys working on the DIYs with me and this one did not involve working with hot butters or wax as when making body butters or candles. Since I had the extra help, it was only fair to allow the great helper to select the fragrance and the color for this fantastic sweet buttercream whipped soap. I am so glad that I allowed my helper to make those selections. The fragrance combination turned out so lovely and the color…, well it’s still fun. Actually, it turned out a beautiful pastel lavender color.
Ingredients & Materials to make Sweet Buttercream Whipped Soap
- 8 oz foaming bath butter
- 1 oz sweet almond oil
- Buttercream fragrance
- Sweet in Paris fragrance
- Mica soap colorants (optional)
- Hand mixer
- Mixing bowls
- 2 – 4 oz jars with lid
How to make Sweet Buttercream whipped soap
First, separate 8 oz from the base soap container and place it in the mixing bowl. I prefer to use glass or metal mixing bowls but a plastic one will work well as well since this is soap. Whip the base soap for a minute or two until it starts taking a whipped consistency.
Add the sweet almond oil, fragrance, and soap colorant and continue to whip for 5 more minutes. I added about one milliliter each of buttercream and sweet in Paris fragrances. Use a pipette for this step. It will make adding the fragrance so much easier than trying to pour from the fragrance containers.
This soap smells deliciously sweet, just like icing, and with a hint of lovely flowers.
After the soap is whipped and the color and fragrances are fully incorporated, scoop the whipped soap into jars and use it as needed. This Sweet Buttercream whipped soap makes a wonderful lather. For more bubbles, you can use a washcloth or loofah.
I love using this soap for my hands. It is also great to use in the shower and bath as well. Make this handmade whipped soap and give it as a gift to friends and family. Handmade gifts are always a great idea to give at any time.
This soap recipe is very simple, the starting point is a melt and pour type of soap base and as with melt and pour soap bases, it can be used to make sugar or salt scrubs as well. I have made some exfoliating whipped soaps over the past months and I’ve added some below. You can head over to your favorite one and get the full recipe and instructions.
Super luxurious and versatile you can make so many variations!
Whipped soap is incredibly luxurious and feels amazing and light on the skin. It is also very versatile and works great for exfoliating soaps as well. This Exfoliating Whipped Soap uses the same base and I added some jojoba beads to give a mild exfoliation.
Also, if you are inspired to make a gift for summer, you can try this Mermaid Blue Whipped Soap version as well.

#twinklytues
I love this! I’ve never made soap before, but it makes me want to try. I bet it’s so soft! Stopping by from Tuesday Talk…thanks for linking up!
I had to pin this. What a great idea!
Hi Jasmine: Sorry to say I have never tried to make my own bath products. Every week I read your posts and love what your doing. Have you ever considered doing a video?
As I get older I truly need to spend much more time on skincare. I also have a mountain of different allergies so the home made versions are the most practical for me.
Thanks for sharing. Leanna
Thank you so much Leanna, I love making my own products and experimenting with fragrances and oils and will definitely consider starting to do some videos and see how that goes. Thank you for the great idea.
This looks good enough to eat! I love how smooth it looks, and the colour. It looks lush! Thanks for linking up with #TwinklyTuesday

Happy Creating,
Karen Marie
Never heard of whipped soap before but it looks really pretty. Thanks for sharing on Family Joy Blog lInkup.
I love this recipe. Do I need to add a preservative since it will make contact with water to prevent bacteria or does the foaming bath on Amazon take care of that? I just want to make sure. And what is the shelf life. And how many 2 oz jars would this fill?
Hi Donna, thank you so much for stopping by and I am so glad you like the whipped soap. For this recipe since we are only adding a small amount of extra skin loving oil to make the whipped soap even better for the skin there is no need to add any extra preservative. The foaming bath butter soap that I recommend in the post already includes a preservative. However, if you plan to take 2 to 3 months to use up then I certainly recommend to add a preservative but only in the amount recommended by the preservative manufacturer which is usually (0.5 to 1%) of the total weight of the extra ingredients. These extra ingredients are the fragrance and the sweet almond oil.
The volume will increase some as you whip the foaming whipped butter so taking that into consideration you may want to use a quantity of five 2 oz jars.
Have a great day!
Hello Jasmine. Thank you for your reply. I also forgot to ask you can it hold up it’s form and consistency in transport?
Hello Donna. The whipped soap holds very well during transport. It will maintain its whipped consistency at room temperature and even in the warm Houston weather. Avoid tapping it to much on a surface or hard sudden drops because it could loose some of the whipped consistency but for the most part is wonderful at keeping very well during transport.
