Thanked: 13245Believe it or not the answer isn't so simple what else is new with this hobby LOL
First Microwaving can burn off essential oils so I recommend a slow warming of the soap and bowl you want to use in a simmering pot of water, ie: a double boiler method
But more importantly it really depends on the soap, only Glycerin based soaps will "melt in",,, Hard Milled soaps will not, they will actually burn into sticky goo in the MW so don't do that

Wow I guess the only simple way would be to buy a smaller bowl.
Thank you for the info
