Bath melts are tiny solid cubes of oils that stay solid at room temperature, but gently melt into a warm bath, enriching the bath with moisturizing oils and fragrance.

YOU'LL NEED.....
1) A saucepan
2) An ice cube tray or suitable small moulds

INGREDIENTS
Weights are not necessary in this recipe. Simply use the following proportions in the quantities you require.
2 parts cocoa butter
1 part sweet almond oil

Essential or Fragrance oil (20-30 drops)

HOW TO.....
Gently melt the cocoa butter over a low heat. Once just melted add the sweet almond oil and mix thoroughly. Remove from heat and leave to cool a little (not too much, it still should be liquid). 
Add  essential oils.  (20 - 30 drops). Stir or whisk in well. 
 I don't recommend you use color, it's not necessary. 
Once cooled but still completely liquid, pour into ice cube tray moulds and cool in the fridge or freezer. Don't actually freeze them, just ensure they are very cold and completely solid.
Press out of ice cube moulds as you would an ice cube and leave at room temperature.
