Soap Making Saturday workshop in Auckland

In this 3 hour workshop, you will learn the basics of Soap Making.

Take this opportunity to make your own soap from scratch, using oils that you can buy in the supermarket. In the theory part you will find out how soap works and you will learn about the cold process method of  making from our expert tutor and business owner Jackie Zeigler from In My Soap Pot.

Topics covered include colouring and fragrancing your soap, adding other ingredients such as clays and exfoliants, natural soapmaking, and troubleshooting. During the practical session, you will make a small loaf of soap (500 ml), which is approximately 4 full sized or 8 guest sized bars of soap. All materials and ingredients are included, and each participant will also receive a silicon soap mould that they get to keep.

WHAT TO BRING?

All materials/ingredients are included in your workshop fee.
Please bring an empty 2L ice cream container OR a bowl of similar volume to mix in.
Please bring a Tea Towel

 

WHAT STUDENTS WAY ABOUT SOAP MAKING:

Tiffany W. (August 2022) 
Gorgeous setting at Uxbridge in Howick. Great studio set up and healthy yummy food options at the cafe. The soap-making course was well worth it. I learnt so much about the scientific side with fascinating soap history to boot! The teacher was passionate and very knowledgeable and whole-heartedly willing to share her ‘secrets’ of soap-making.
