Named for the smiliest and most lovely lady back home. This was her scent idea and I've run with it. Katrina, I hope I did this justice for you. The scent: Three types of ripe oranges~ mandarin,Florida fresh squeezed and exotic Spanish blood oranges are softened with Bourbon and Madagascar vanillas which is all spiked with the those most delicious buttered mint! The result is an amazingly sexy scent that will get you nibbled if not attacked by the hunk (or babe) of your choice!

Pixie Party Fizzy Bath Cupcake £2.50 each

Absolutely packed with shea and cocoa butters, this will slowly dissolve in the tub and leave you dewy soft. We all know the story of the other 'rella gal.....well our story goes a bit differently.

The enchanting palace that was once home of the French royal family....you can just imagine all the court beauties flirting behind their rococo roses and billows of silks, satins and velvets.

Some days you have to improvise!

I rarely take days off . So much so that when I do finally take one, going back to work throws me off. I went into the workshop today with every intention of being brilliant and knocking out the icing for the rest of my fizzy bath cupcakes......
Well it was somewhat.....wet....today. Therefore high lovely peaks were just not happening. I had to settle for a more homestyle frosting look rather than bakery chic. It's when something annoys me I have learned to change direction and focus. I decided I would make a topping that was more like a moisturizing bubble bar.

It was such a strange consistency that I decided to take the leftovers and scoop it like ice cream.....it looks so authentic. I decided if this sets up the way I expect it too....then it will become a new product on the Posh Brats website. What do you think? Bubble Scoopz?


Oh and here are the fizzy bath cupcakes with the same solid bubble bath as an icing:



These are already on our website:

Days off are essential......

I don't take that many days off. I work pretty much 6 days a week 16 hours a day......every day. It's just one of those things you accept as a business owner trying to carve your niche in a crowded market.
Annnnywayyyyyy, my 5 year old son Tyler has been patiently coming into the workshop with me every day now. It's his summer holidays and he's spending it with Mummy.......not too fun for him when it involves all manner of soap.

So today I decided we are having a day off and heading to the mall to see the new Shrek movie and perhaps pop down into Chinatown Mnachester for some lunch......

It's going to be a great day!
