Equipment
- Measuring cups or jug
- Large bowl
- Spoon or spatula
- Silicone moulds or icecube trays
Ingredients
- 1 cup sodium bicarbonate also known as bicarb or baking soda
- ½ cup citric acid
- 1½ tbsp castile soap unscented
Essential Oils
- 15 drops preferred essential oil see notes below for suggestions
Instructions
- Stir the bicarbonate of soda and citric acid together until combined
- Slowly stir in the castile soap and essential oil. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand
- Pack the mixture into a mould and let dry at least four hours (I usually let mine sit overnight).
- Once dry, remove the fizzies from the mould and store in an airtight container
To Use
- To use, simply drop a fizzie into the toilet, wait until it stops bubbling (go put the kettle on and make a cuppa to give it a few minutes), then scrub away!
Notes
Depending on the himidity in the air and how much Castile Soap you use, the the mixture will likely expand above the mould. It doesn't matter too much if this happens (unless you want really pretty, perfect looking fizzies) - they still work the same.
However, if it's a concern, firmly press back down. If it REALLY expands above, you can scrape some off the top and add to an empty mould.
Recommended essential oils:
