Soap Bars with a Surprise

"Cute bars of soap using store bought glycerine soap bars (about $3 each in most grocery stores) with little surprises hidden inside like mini nail polishes, lipsticks, money, etc. As simple as chopping blocks of soap into chunks, melting it down in microwave, then re-molding into a muffin tin or ramekins."
