| Who wouldn’t want a cream called Tummy and Toe Jam? This fun cream is perfect for kids or those who are kids at heart. Simple enough to make with a classroom full of kids without loosing their attention, this cream can be made from start to finish in about 15 minutes.
Collect needed items:
Recipe:
Weigh all ingredients except Germaben II and Blowing Bubbles Fragrance Oil into the microwave safe container. Heat in the microwave using short time bursts until everything is melted. Blend the ingredients to a smooth, creamy consistency using the immersion blender. Add Germaben II and Blowing Bubbles Fragrance Oil once the temperature drops below 140 degrees Fahrenheit. Blend until completely mixed. Pour into jars and allow to cool completely. Cap the jars. Notes: This recipe makes approximately 16 fl oz of cream. If you look closely at the first photo, you can see that this cream was whipped into a froth. Enjoy! Next week, we will make more lotion and some fun batches of soap, so stay tuned!

I am just learning, but my finished lotion has some grains in it. Does that mean I didn’t melt it enough?
Thanks,
Amy
Yes, your finished lotion was not melted completely. I think it is the Stearic Acid that was not melted completely.
Simply fix this by scooping all the lotion into a microwave safe container and re-melt it. When everything is fluid and appears to be melted, take a small spoon and dip it into the lotion. If the spoon doesn’t have any lumps on it, pour the lotion back into the containers.
Hope this helps!
