Hola !!
I was curious as to how many bombs this makes per recipe for the $ ??
I think that would depend on your mold sizes… for a small mold like this one it made 6 if I remember correctly.
This is the absolute best recipe for toilet cleaner! Thank you
where do I get the citric acid?
Canning supplies at Walmart or Target
Do you have a printable version of this recipe? Thanks!
Do you have a printable version of this recipe? Thansk!
Does it matter what size you make the pods?
I don’t think it matters too much, I wouldn’t get them too big though.. keep them on the smaller size.
Hi Karrie, I just made these and the mixture foamed up like crazy and just kept foaming. I could pat it down and pack it into the mold but it just kept foaming away. I probably didn’t use the right kind of soap. What did you use? Thanks!
Was it wet? Sounds like it might be a possiblilty bc the foaming is the chemical reaction between the baking soda and citric acid. Just like bath bombs foaming starts with the addition of water
Can’t wait to try these! I have that EXACT same Wilton pan (so cute!) and a sunflower one. I’ll turn cleaning the bathroom into adorable task! 🙂
