Remember my broken breadmaker?

I have just had a genius moment, and I am SO glad I hadn't got round to chucking it out!

It currently starts kneading as soon as it is turned on, but I get no heat from it.

So... its just perfect for soapmaking! Will be giving it a try later on and let you know how it goes :D

    I thought you were going to say it's perfect for making instant pizza dough or instant mashed potato :)
