chocolate cone
Melted chocolate on warm biscuit.
- Made in Adelaide, Australia
- Handmade in small batches
Two layers. One chocolatey, biscuit-scented bar. A very convincing snack-shaped misunderstanding.
Cold process soap, made in Adelaide. The dark layer is coloured with cocoa powder. Cured for six weeks before it’s ready for bath time.
A closer look
The top layer smells like chocolate. The bottom layer smells like biscuit. They’re poured separately because a real cone doesn’t smell like the scoop on top.
The dark colour comes from cocoa powder, not chocolate-coloured perfume. It looks like dessert. It is still soap.
Ster remains nearby. She has seen this confusion before.

What’s in it
Beef tallow helps give the bar firmness and a creamy lather. Rice bran and olive oils contribute to a mild-feeling cleanse. Coconut oil helps create cleansing lather; palm oil contributes firmness; castor oil helps support a stable lather. Shea butter adds to the creamy feel. The scent, colour and extra ingredients vary by bar, so check the full ingredient list for this one.
How it’s made
Each batch starts with measured oils, water and sodium hydroxide. The cooled lye solution is blended with the oils until the mixture thickens, then poured into moulds. For this bar, the two scented layers are poured separately. Once firm, the soap is unmoulded and cut by hand in Adelaide, then left to cure for six weeks before it’s ready for bath time.
