Melt and pour soap is a great option for beginners! In this video, Bramble Berry CEO and Founder, Anne-Marie Faiola, goes over the basics of melt and pour soapmaking.
All you have to do is melt the premade base, customize it with your favorite colors and scents, and pour into a mold. Once you get the hang of the process, you can experiment with advanced techniques like layers and swirls.

What did she say about fragrances?
Thank you for sharing🥰 I'm interested in buying the clear base and the color block from this company. 1.Where are they shipping from and is shipping usually fast?
What mind of school or does it matter
Can I add edible sprinklers in the soap?
Thank you!
Thanks so much! I need to purchase supplies for this since I’m taking a mold making and casting class in college and our current project is a plaster mold, and resin doesn’t like plaster so we can basically only make casts with melt/pour soap or candle wax. So now I need to learn all about this before my next class in 2 days aaaah hopefully it goes well for me!
Can I use the soaps to make a shampoo bar
Hi Anne-Marie. So I’m just starting to learn how to make soaps and I used the white melt and pour soap base. I made two small soaps but they don’t lather at all. Can you tell me what I’m doing wrong?
I just tried melt and pour for the first time and it began hardening withing seconds. I made sure to heat it in short bursts. Not sure what's going on. There's no time add fragrance or color.
Do melt and pour soap need time for curing?
would love to see some wrapping that's not plastic.. i care about the planet, what do you suggest?
does she have to say snot? it's a gross term, use mucous
Thank you very much! Your amaizing!
Thank you 😍🤍
I have prepared a batch of melt & pour soaps with clear glycerin soap base. Additionally added Aloe vera and holy basil leaves extract, Almond oil and essential oils. After one week its sides shrinked, as if someone squeezed it. Why is this happening? [Soap base used is not BrambleBerry]
Every time I use the microwave, my clear soap base burns. I don’t understand why 🙁 I tried three different times. I cut into small pieces then into super small pieces, I did 30 seconds first time and then 5-10 seconds and still keeps burning. Then I tried boiling it and it burned as well. I was successful with only one batch while boiling it but it was goat milk base. Please help I don’t understand what to do. I’ve wasted a lot of soap base
Beautiful
How do you clean your supplies or utensils
Can i add breast milk to this melt and pour recipe?
