How to make Minion inspired Bath Bombs…
~Lemon ‘Minion Inspired’ Bath Bomb Recipe ~
(Yields: Approx. 12 bath bombs)
SUPPLIES You will NEED:
1 Wilton 12 cup mini muffin silicone mold
1 cup baking soda
1 cup citric acid
1/2 cup cornstarch
1/2 cup coconut oil
10/12 drops lemon essential oil (or whatever scent you prefer)
2/3 drops yellow food coloring
Wilton 24 ct Despicable Me sugar decorations
HOW TO MAKE THE BATH BOMBS:
1. First preheat your oven to 140°degrees.
2. Add the baking soda, cornstarch, coconut oil, citric acid, lemon essential oil and the yellow coloring into either a glass or metal bowl (not plastic). Stir until well incorporated. The mixture should resemble a consistency of sand.
3. Transfer the sandy bath bomb mixture into their molds. Pat down very firmly.
4. Put the silicone mold on a cookie sheet and place in the oven. Turn the preheated oven OFF and leave the mold in the oven for 1 hour, keeping the door closed.
5. Remove the silicone mold from the oven and immediately place a minion sugar decoration on top of each bath bomb. Pressing firmly. Allow the bath bombs to cool inside their molds for 2 hours.
6. Carefully pop each bath bomb out of its mold and allow to air dry overnight.
7. Store in a mason jar or other glass, airtight container.
8. Use a bath bomb by dropping into your warm bath water! As it dissolves, enjoy the fresh fun scent of lemon and the moisturizing coconut oil!
