RE: My Entry to the Alternative Consumer Challenge: Hard Lotion Bars and Lip Balms
Hmmm, And if possible, let it cool just a bit before pouring into the cardboard. Much rather go to the trouble than use plastic! 😉

It cools and hardens very quickly, is the issue. It will be unpourable if you let it cool. I don't use plastic, either, except for when I had a soap mold which was reuseable and meant for that heat - a silicone cupcake mold and paper cupcake liners in a muffin tin were some other options.
So the cardboard might work if it has that liner bit on it, as the muffin tin with paper liners did.
OK! I may need to use the cardboard tubes for something else, but I’m definitely going to try your recipe. I’m determined to get my plastic use to a minimum!
