You will love it!! I have now cut 4 loaves with mine and I love it.:-D

I bevel my soaps about 3 days after unmolding. I use a vegetable peeler.

I have tried to cut the soaps myself but they are crooked and not as appealing to me. I used the cutter the other night and it worked perfectly. what is a fluted hand cutter?

I made my first batch of goat's milk soap using powdered milk last night. I mixed with a cup of the oils and the titanium dioxide and stick blended and then poured it back into the batch at light trace. Was this not a good way to do it?

I finally broke down and ordered a soap cutter and boy am I in love with it. I didn't want to spend the money for a tank because I am new to soap cutting. For the past three years, I have been using a mold that makes 18 bars at a time so I don't have to cut the soaps as the dividers do all the...

I'm sorry but this is funny!

okay, I just went and watch her videos and I was totally scared too death!! WOW, that place is a hot mess! I did find myself laughing but I was so busy looking at the mess that I could not focus on the soap making. By the way, I have never seem anyone stick blend that long!!

I normally pour off a little of my soap prior to putting it in the mold in my brownie mold also for samples....love those little brown bite soaps!

I have been using the 18 bar divided mold from Mr. Do Right and I absolutely love it. Lately, I have been wanting to make smaller batches for home and testing but have a few questions. When using these loaf molds, how do you get the tops to be flat and smooth? I often see people do those...

Over the past few months, I have started limiting the oils that I use. I would hear about how great certain oils were and then I would rush out to buy them to try them in a recipe and it would never come out the way I wanted. I have now started limiting myself to 3 recipes that I have are...

After reading so many good reviews about Monkey Farts fragrance oil, I decided to purchase it and see how it actually smelled. I love the scents, it smells like bubble gum to me. The problem is I need to come up with a different name for it besides Monkey Farts!! I have toyed with a few names...

Well, I did have a lady show up at my house with one of my business cards that had my address on it and want to buy soap. I was a little cautious about letting her in because I didn't know her...luckily my husband who is a police officer was home so I let her in and she bought a ton of products...

I have been so tempted but the one person's soaps that I want to try is Lynz's Arftisan Soaps but she doesn't ship to the USA. Her soaps are just absolutely gorgeous! I said in 2012, I was going to buy more from small businesses and trying other soaps from fellow soapers is going to be one of...

Decided to use some fragrances that I had ordered a few months back to create a new soap this morning....that was the start of my demise. I used my "go to" recipe that I have used for at least 5 batches and have never had a problem but today, was something different. My recipe is Castor...

So how much should be a starting point. I ordered some to try (4oz) and I was thinking of using 1/2 oz for a 5lb batch.

I just purchased some Coconut Milk (powder form) and was wondering how to incorporate it into my soaps. I was planning to mix some of the oils with the powdered milk and then add at trace.

I have been attempting to find a reasonably priced soap beveler and have not been very successful. Does anyone on the forum use a beveler and if so, do you know where I can get a decent one?

going to have to try this when I make my orange patchouli soap next week.
