Pair with chocolate and campfire for a toasted s'more-style candle; alone it is soft but sweet.

Usually vanillin-based and turns soap tan to brown. Plan the design around it.

Melt-and-pour soapGood

Browns in melt-and-pour over weeks; a vanilla color stabilizer slows it, or choose a brown design.

Don't have it? Try Vanilla, Caramel.

Marshmallows were originally made with sap from the root of the marsh mallow plant; modern ones use gelatin instead.
