Its got some kind of moisturizer in it that keeps it from flaking.
I did a soap carving of a scarab beetle today. I have a simple way to do this... 1. Get a bar of soap. ( I used Irish Spring a practice, Ivory is perfect) 2. There are many tools you can use. I use plastic forks , spoons, and plastic knifes with serrated edges. and toothpicks. There are others, but these are safe alternatives. 3. choose a pattern. 4. whittle away the outside ... 5. DO NOT SOAK SOAP IN WARM WATER FOR MORE THAN 30 SECS. UNLESS YOU WANT A SOAPY PILE OF CRUD!!! 6. add detail to the carving.
