There are many great recipes for making your own natural liquid soap. While most of the recipes differ in the mixture of oils they use, one thing seems pretty consistent - they all make a lot of soap! Even the small recipe I have for making basic liquid soap makes almost 6 pounds when diluted. Unless you use liquid soap every day for bathing, that's a lot of soap! If you fragrance and dilute the whole six pounds of paste, you're stuck with the same blend of oils and fragrance until you've used it all up. But there's actually an easy way to divide up the soap paste into more manageable batches.

I can’t find the rest of the article. How do I divide it up/store the smaller portions?
