Hey soap making friends! I can't for the life of me remember the volume of oils I need for piping a 5lb loaf - all I remember is that it was like 1/2 the size or 1/4 the size of the 5lb batch. But the exact amount has completely slipped my mind. I searched all my note books and recipe books to...

This weekend was my first men's soap and another attempt at the black raspberry vanilla. Turned out pretty cute, I must say! I haven't quite mastered the art of blending my TD ... or avoiding those annoying tiny little air BUBBLES. Oh well! :) I've only been soaping for a month - so it's not...

Busy weekend soaping -- here's what I made! Had some piping issues with the lemon lavender - my yellow set up faster than my purple and was almost a disaster lol All three soaps were my first time ever piping soap - I've made lots of cakes in my lifetime though!

I made this beautiful loaf of fruit loops confetti soap, didn't over insulate like I did with the previous one and just placed it in a box and left it for 24 hours. It didn't get anywhere near as hot as the first soap I made.... This is only the 2nd time I've ever made CP soap. I prepped my...

Hi y’all, *gulp* time to swallow my pride and ask a few very beginner questions. I invested quite a bit of time and money into my very first soaping experience. I have spent countless hours watching videos and reading blogs, forums etc. So when it came time to make my first batch I was sure it...

I am completely new to soap making but I'm confidant (maybe overly confidant) I can figure this out pretty quickly. I have been researching and formulating ideas, recipes and learning techniques for months and I have finally bit the bullet and purchased my supplies. I am about to make my...
