Way overdue. . . . A gift of common sense caution, proven methods, tried-and-true shortcuts, and some excellent recipes as well. -- Deb Petersen, Shepherd's Soap Co., Shelton, Washington

Book Description

Maybe you've made melt-and-pour soap and want to move on to something more challenging and rewarding. Maybe traditional soapmaking appeals to you, but you figure it's too difficult or dangerous. Or maybe you're already doing it, but outmoded ideas and methods are complicating the process and slowing you down.

No matter which of these fits you, you'll find Smart Soapmaking practical, helpful, and refreshing. Written by a former professional soapmaker, this book explodes the myths about soapmaking and shows you how to make luxurious soap with the least fuss and bother.

With both customary and metric measurements, plus a list of suppliers in five countries, Smart Soapmaking is the first truly international book on the craft!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book, Mar 6 2008
This review is from: Smart Soapmaking: The Simple Guide to Making Traditional Handmade Soap Quickly, Safely, and Reliably, or How to Make Luxurious Handcrafted Soaps for Family, Friends, and Yourself (Paperback)
I found this to be the best book I have purchased to date on making cold process soaps. It is great for beginners because it gives easy to understand, no fail directions and recipes. It does away with many of the myths of soap making that persist in other books. It also gives a great variety of base soaps to make and expand on. If you want success and an easy and relaxed way to make C.P soaps do yourself a favor and get this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic for the Beginner!, Nov 16 2010
This review is from: Smart Soapmaking: The Simple Guide to Making Traditional Handmade Soap Quickly, Safely, and Reliably, or How to Make Luxurious Handcrafted Soaps for Family, Friends, and Yourself (Paperback)
This book was suggested to me by a friend. I was gung-ho to start making soap, but I had read a couple of other books that either had misinformation in them or were just plain confusing.

This book made it easy! My first batch of soap turned out beautifully and I am excited to make more.

The author debunks some of the myths attached to soapmaking and makes it easy for the beginner to get started.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who has had poor luck making soap or who is just starting out.
