About this title

Synopsis

The age old craft of soapmaking is easy using today's techniques. More than 50 hand-milled soap recipes are included in this book, giving the reader every step of the process, from choosing equipment to creating fancy forms and scents.

Reviews

Soapmaking, once a practical necessity for the homemaker, has almost passed out of the repertoire of home crafts. Nevertheless, one can still make homemade soap with delightful fragrances and interesting textures. This book provides detailed instructions and recipes for basic lye soaps made with animal or vegetable fats and for hand-milled and specialty soaps using almond meal, chamomile, glycerin, and milk that expand on those basic formulas. Shampoos and liquid soaps are covered as well.
