Another guest post from Di!


its smell, prior to use, was just like soap and baby powder. not a strong/over-powering smell.

it took about 2 minutes to dissolve in very warm water. it had no smell after being dissolved.

but I had an overwhelming feeling of being calm, relaxed, free of any worries.


after I smelled slightly of baby powder. a nice clean smell. after my skin was very soft, not silky soft but much softer.

I quite enjoyed the feeling his product gave me but would have appreciated a stronger sent while it is in use in my bath. I was calm and such but it didn't feel very special with out a sent.


I would give this a 4-5 out of 5.

Another Guest review by my bather Di!


this product smells just like milk chocolate. if I didn't know it was a bath product I would have eaten it in a heart beet. it made me crave chocolate. the hotter the water the quicker it dissolves. it wasn't melting fast enough so I added more hot water and then I melted faster. I wish that it was only 1/2 the size it was like bathing in butter (not the good "like badda" from SNL, it is like the stick of greasy butter in the fridge).

it melts and looks just like butter creating yellow pools of grease on top of the water. it left parts of my skin a lot more greasy than other spots that I rubbed to even out. I think that's just because there was to much oil for one bath melt. it has now been about an hour since my bath and I still can feel the layer of oil on my skin in spots (legs and hands). I am waterproof (lol) but it is slowly soaking into my skin.

the bath smelled very good not over powering I kept getting nice wafts of the chocolaty goodness. I liked this product a great amount but a little goes a long way. would love to try this again and cut it in 1/2 maybe even a 1/4. warn people after your bath that the tub is completely greased down so they don't kill themselves getting into the shower.

it did not enhance my bath this time. I ended up quickly getting out of the tub after about 20 minutes. the plus is that I did smell slightly of delectable chocolate. I felt like if I were to stay in any longer it would never absorb. I air dried because did not want to ruin a towel then waiting even longer for it to absorb so could put old "I don't care" pjs on.

I would rate this product (as is) 3/5.

if it was smaller it would be much more enjoyable and would receive a 5/5

This is a Guest Review done by my good friend and Bath Aficionado, Di.

My original thought on the smell prior to use is curiosity. I was completely unable to label the sent. This is every thing that first went through my head. Quiet, subtle, clean, soapy, baby powder, chalk, coconut (?), vanilla (?). several people could not figure out the specific sent. Then after reading the label closing my eyes and thinking really hard then I could small cupcakes.

It was very easy to use, plop right in the tub and watch fizzle away. It dissolved very quickly in my opinion too quickly. It fizzle and foamed but was not as energetic as I hoped. Once it dissolved in the tub it was much harder to smell cup cakes, I mostly could smell chalk and soap. After my skin was not hugely soft but much softer than usual. My skin now smelled like I had baked a cake.

I was a very positive experience and did enhance my bath. It made the bathe unique and a little extra special. I am personally not a cup cake sent type person but I will more than likely enjoy another cupcake bath bomb bath.
