Melt and pour soap with goat's milk

Create your very own glycerin soap with our simple melt-and-pour soap. Our soap base is fragrance-free, so your essential or fragrance oils that you add to the soap will truly shine. Color the soap as you wish using our liquid colorants or powder pigments (mica), which will give the finished product a rich and shimmering look.

Simply cut the soap into small cubes and melt it in a pot on the stove over low heat, stirring continuously. Once the soap is melted, add your fragrance (you can also combine several fragrances) and color. Stir once more and pour into prepared molds. Once the soap has set and cooled, gently remove it from the molds.

Coffee melt-and-pour soap (recipe):

1 kg goat milk soap base (such as this one)

1 tablespoon freshly ground coffee

1 teaspoon almond oil 

1 – 1.5 teaspoons fragrance, optional (scents such as vanilla, coffee, cappuccino, or cinnamon)

Tools

Soap molds – you can use almost any silicone soap mold for this, depending on the look you want to achieve. 

Double boiler for melting soap on the stove

A plastic or wooden spoon dedicated to soap making (not one you intend to use for food in the future)

A small spray bottle filled with alcohol

Instructions for preparing melt-and-pour soap

Prepare your double boiler.

Place your molds on a baking sheet (cover with wax paper or similar to protect against spills)

Cut the soap base into pieces.

Gently melt the soap pieces over low to medium heat – you don't want to burn your base
Remove from heat and quickly stir the coffee, almond oil, and fragrance into the melted base (but be careful, it's hot!)
Pour into molds, right up to the top.
Spray generously with alcohol to prevent the formation of air bubbles.
Leave for several hours to allow the soaps to set – you can place them in the refrigerator for an hour to speed this up.

Once the soaps are fully set, remove them from the molds and store in airtight containers or wrap in cellophane film.
They are ready for use immediately; no curing time is required.
