90 Minutes | Learn More, Make More
Ready to go beyond the basics? Our Intro to Soap Making class takes you deeper into the art and science of handmade soap while keeping the experience approachable, practical, and hands-on.
We'll explore the fundamentals of saponification, learn what different oils and butters contribute to a recipe, and discover why choosing the right combination of oils matters. You'll also be introduced to soap recipes, superfat, fragrance, colour, and essential soap-making safety.
You'll then put your knowledge into practice by making two 300 g loaves of handmade soap, using different pouring techniques, with plenty of opportunity to personalize your creations.
You'll also receive a student handout containing the key information covered in class (including my recipe!), giving you a useful reference to take home and revisit as you continue your soap-making journey.
You'll learn:
How soap really works
The science behind saponification
The basics of soap formulation
Tips for choosing oil/butter ratios
Safe and confident handling of lye (lye water is pre-mixed)
Techniques & tools for colouring, scenting, and decorating
Superfat, troubleshooting & experimenting with ingredients
You'll make:
2 × 300 g loaves of handmade soap (safety equipment provided)
You'll receive:
A comprehensive student handout including our class recipe
600 g of handmade soap
Practical knowledge you can continue to build on
