Hi bobrjr~

I've found a source for the recipe for making glycerine rose petal
soaps; there is a fee of $3 for the recipe. Would you like me to post
this source as an Answer to your question?

No, is there any other place where this can be found?

Hi bobrjr,

The secret to suspending flower petals in melted glycerine is to wait
until the glycerine begins to gel again (consistency of sour cream),
you will then be able to suspend the petals in the gel. I've never
made soap, but I do have experience with making candle and it is the
same idea. It will take awhile to judge "when the time is just right",
but your soap will be lovely whether the petals float, sink or
suspend.
