I did a little test today with a 1.5lb batch to see what would happen if I used orange extract that contained alcohol.  What I discovered was that the mix seized up as I was mixing in the lye mixture.  It got to think to use my stick blender within seconds so I used a spatula to mix it and then used my hands to pack it into a plastic Velveeta box I have.  I just used 80/20 olive and coconut oils with infused paprika oil for color.  It is soap, but not very pretty.
