For each color, put two tablespoons of hot water and one cup of soap flakes into a bowl
Add as many drops of food color to the mixture as you wish
Stir the soap mixture until it thickens
This takes time, so be patient! Press spoonfuls of the first color of soap into the sections of the ice tray
Mix enough soap in other colors to fill the ice tray, following the above directions again
Let the soap crayons dry for one or two days
Gently bang the ice tray to loosen the crayons
Pack them in a box for gift-giving
Great for birthday presents or holidays
