Abstract
Abstract A soap cake and method of manufacture is provided having a substantially water insoluble base portion to retard deterioration of the soap bar from the bottom. The soap is molded to the base and is retained in connection with the base through the provision of surface interruptions in the top surface of the base having wall portions extending at an angle to align normal to the top surface of the base so as to lock the cake to the base during the cake molding operation.
