Date and Time

During this 1.5 to 2 hour workshop, you will learn the fundamentals of cold process soap making with Emlyn, founder of Solid Soaps. 

All materials are provided to make your own customize soap. Each participant will make approximately one pound of soap in a loaf mold to take home. You will also receive a printed recipe and handout so you can confidently recreate the process on your own.

Please wear closed-toe shoes and long sleeves. We will provide goggles, gloves, and an apron to borrow. This does involve the handling of sodium hydroxide (aka lye), so safety is very important for this type of soap making.

This workshop is suitable for ages 13 and up with a parent or guardian present. 

What is cold process soap making?

Cold process soap making is a traditional method of making soap from scratch. Fats/oils/butters are blended with sodium hydroxide (aka lye), triggering a natural chemical reaction called saponification that transforms those ingredients into soap.

This method of soap making allows for better customization because you determine the soap ingredients. After 24 to 48 hours, the soap is ready to cut. Allow your soap to cure for 4 to 6 weeks so excess water evaporates, resulting in a harder, longer-lasting bar.
