The Melt & Pour process
differs from the Cold Process or Hot Process in that
no soap is made (i.e. no actual saponification occurs)
in the process; a melt and pour soap base acquired in
commerce is melted in a microwave oven or double-boiler
and additional items such as fragrances,
essential oils,
colorants,
or exfoliating agents
are added. While still hot, the concoction can be poured
into sheet molds,
tray molds,
or blocks which upon cooling can be sliced.
Melt and pour does not give the soaper complete control
over the ingredients (i.e., the choice of fat to use).
Most soaps do not melt readily once they have saponified;
the exceptions are clear glycerin soaps, and white soap
made from white coconut oil. See below for our selection
of soap bases.
Some soapmakers prefer melt and pour because the process
is easy and allows the soapmaker to concentrate more
on the aesthetic aspects of soap making. It also avoids
the need to handle lye, which is a hazardous and very
caustic chemical.

Olive Oil Soap Base

the skin and has a great lather. This product has replaced
20% of the other vegetable oils by olive oil. This product
