Miche Scott Handmade

Private Cold Process Soap

$2,500.00

A private, unhurried session in which you'll learn the full cold process method from scratch — from calculating lye to unmolding a finished bar — with one-on-one guidance through every step. You leave with your own handmade soaps, a working recipe you own, and the confidence to make more at home.

There is something particular about learning a craft in your own kitchen — the comfort of familiar surroundings, the absence of performance anxiety, the freedom to ask every question that crosses your mind. This session is built around that intimacy.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • Do I need any experience?

None at all. The class is designed for complete beginners, but crafters with some experience will still find it valuable — we go deep on formulation, not just the steps.

  • How many bars will I make?

You make 5 kilograms of soap by the end of class.
That's roughly 30–35 bars, depending on how you cut them — ready to cure, gift, or keep.

  • Can I gift this to someone?

Yes — gift certificates are available. Reach out to arrange a custom card and choose whether to include a scent preference or leave it open for the recipient.

  • Where is the class held?

We come to you. The session takes place in your home — all we need is access to a kitchen or workspace with a hob. We bring everything and leave your space clean.

  • What is the cancellation policy?

All sales are final. This session is non-refundable — please book only when you're certain of your date.
