Toy Surprise Inside Golden Egg Bath Bomb Know some kids? Or someone young at heart? They'll delight in this fun take on the bath bomb -- come on, it's a sparkly golden egg with a toy inside. Heck, you can even make this without the toy, since the golden egg appearance is so much fun on its own.
Ingredients:
1 cup baking soda
1/2 cup citric acid
1/2 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup epsom salts
2 Tbsp fractionated coconut oil (or almond oil)
1/4 tsp kid-safe essential oil*
1 Tbsp water
purple gel food coloring
large plastic egg molds/candy holders
small toys that easily fit inside the eggs
1-2 cans of Wilton edible Gold Color Spray
1/4-1/2 tsp gold cosmetic glitter (very fine glitter)
Directions:
1. Mix together the dry ingredients for bath bombs, then add the oil, essential oil and water. Take care to whisk quickly as you add the water so it can blend in before causing much reaction.
2. Add the purple gel food coloring. Stir in well, and repeat until mixture is a medium to deep purple. It doesn't have to be too dark, but helps make the gold over it look more realistic.
3. Fill each side of a plastic egg candy holder with the bath bomb mixture, then insert a toy on larger side of egg... Press down around the toy and opposite side to ensure the mold is well packed, then add more. Press down, once sides are full add an extra scoop on each side and press firmly together. Set the bath bomb filled molds aside to set for about 1/2 an hour, then remove to dry out for about another hour before painting (longer is fine).
4. Once the purple egg bath bombs are dry, take a can of Wilton edible gold paint shake well and mist on the bath bombs. It will take a number of coats to fully cover the egg with gold paint. While the spray is still wet sprinkle on some gold cosmetic glitter to add more glisten to the Golden Egg bath bombs.
5. The Toy Surprise Inside Golden Egg Bath Bombs should be left to dry overnight before sealing in airtight container or using.
