The Natural Soapmaker Book by Deborah Dolen

Author Direct eBook On-Line Video  Amazon Kindle Amazon Instant Video

The Natural Soapmaker   is loaded with recipes and formula’s to make soap the old fashioned way, coupled with modern technology for faster preparation and easier clean up.  Making your own soap saves a lot of money and produces a much higher quality soap than commercial bought.  Few commercial bars say "soap" anymore on the label because they are not genuine soap.  Most are detergent "bars."    Old fashioned soap is long lasting and gives off a natural "clean" and "sexy" scent.  Natural soap is easy to make with most ingredients local to you. About the Author

The Natural Soapmaker book was updated in 2008 to add "How to Cure Your Soap in the Oven in 2 Hours" among other great recipes and techniques. Although written for cold process, all recipes can be used in the hot process method, for example the crock pot method that became more popular in the last few years, after this book was written.  Hot process became more popular because it almost eliminates a 30 to 60 day curing time that cold process soap making requires.  Not one of the Mabel White books deal with messy double broiler methods—or long stirring times.  We opt for the crock pot and hand help mixers instead.  The author makes clean up so easy—you will always want to be making your own all natural concoctions at home.  Recently updated with metric conversions as well as the U.S. standard of weights.  (66 Pages.)  Registered National Library of Canada, Ottawa, ISBN 1-894872-08-8 Copyright © Deborah Dolen 2002-2011.

Making cold and hot process soap is now made easy with our stick blender method.  Most soaps trace within a few minutes.  Gone are the days of stirring for hours!  The Natural Soapmaker also shows you the best way to "gift wrap" your soap with the new Reynolds parchment paper (found in any grocery store) and sealing with a simple gold foil label--even Hallmark would sell you.  The Reynolds paper is water resistant unlike other parchment papers.

If you are still intimidated by lye, you can start off slowly with The Soap Rebatcher.  Rebatching is basically better to do around kids, and does not involve lye.  You are simply taking pure soap, already processed, (not grocery store soap--that is not soap)  shredding it in a food processor and cooking it in a crock pot with additives you do like.  This is known as "Re-Milling" and a great second step also for base soap makers not afraid of lye.  When you rebatch soap--the additives come out stronger and more potent.  Double and triple milling also produces a  harder soap.  This is why double and triple milled soaps are considered more prized to posses than a one mill soap.

Other books by Deborah Dolen

Previous Mabel White DIY formula books, written by Deborah Dolen include The Bathroom Chemist and The Self Apothecary, and The Beekeepers Digest are recipe, technique and formula heavy, offering a broad creative range. They are also pretty much a prerequisite if you are new to making your own toiletries, where The London Apothecary formulatory is more advanced, having a newer and definite focus on perfected techniques of making the actual base balm, natural wax jelly, lotion, and truly hard bath bombs.  In part due to newer methods discovered during 2004 and 2005.  We know you will enjoy this book and it will be a basis of your library!  Have fun!
