Shipping Soap to Canada

[MellonFriend]

I have an online friend up in Manitoba (I'm in the US) who is going to send me a package of her raw cashmere to spin as long as we can figure out if it will get through customs okay. In return, I would love to offer her some of my goatmilk soap. Is it legal to send soap into Canada? If so, should I package it in such a way that customs will be able to see the physical bars? I was planning on maybe just wrapping them in tissue paper and stickering them shut, but maybe I should forgo the stickers so they don't have to be ripped open? I've never shipped anything internationally so I'm prepared if these are all very naïve questions. Any recommendations for packaging would be appreciated.

I have shipped soaps to Canada and didn’t need to do anything special other than making sure the soaps were protected, I think some were in boxes And some in cigar bands because back then I was not boxing everything yet. I made sure to fill out the customs declaration accurately.
