How to Make Encased Blocks Soaps (melt and pour)

MATERIALS NEEDED:
Transparent melt and pour soap base
Melting pan
Soap scent
Soap dye (at least two colors)
Square or rectangular soap mold
Stirring stick
Knife

 
I used only two colors, but you could make interior blocks of multiple colors if you want. As an alternative option, you could also color the outer encasing layer to house the different colored blocks within. The scents are I use here are essential oils, and the dyes are homemade veggie dyes. I do have a tutorial posted for the dandelion dye here.
