Are you trying to find amazing soap makers gifts? A list of nine fantastic and unusual gifts that soap makers would adore is provided below.




P.S. Let me assist you in obtaining the fantastic presents you truly desire if you are the soap producer. Send your gift-givers my way with a clue, and I'll take care of the rest. ;)


1. Sets of Soap Mold and Slicer


It's time for an update if your soap maker slices her soap with a kitchen knife and uses a shoebox as a mold.


These soap molds and slicers provide the ideal beginner kit for cold process soap manufacturing. Two soap molds, one straight and one wavy, and two soap slicers are included in the kit.

I frequently use this kit to make my own soap because the mold accommodates a great 2-pound amount that is neither too big nor too tiny. I also utilized this set for the online soap-making course's video tutorials.


This combination of wire soap cutter and soap mold is also quite attractive. (Disclosure: In exchange for my frank evaluation, I did receive this specific set for free.) A one-pound batch of soap can be held in the silicone-lined wood loaf form. The size is perfect for creating melt-and-pour soap loaves. Additionally, it's ideal for creating tiny test batches of brand-new CP or HP soap formulations.


The wire soap cutter works with soap loaves up to five pounds and makes slicing even, symmetrical bars a breeze. The measuring rule on the cutter guarantees precisely uniform bars, and the wire slices through with ease.



2. Beveler Soap


Is a vegetable peeler being used by your soap maker to create smooth soap corners? Get a soap beveler as a favor for her.


An otherwise laborious task is made quick work of with this useful little device. The entire side of the loaf of soap can be easily beveled by placing it on the beveler and pushing it across the blade. Additionally, bevelers can be employed quickly to polish the corners of individual bars.

For people who sell soap, a beveler is an essential instrument. However, it's a fantastic present for any soap maker to add a lovely finishing touch to bars.


This cheap soap beveler will do the job for the amateur. The years of craftsmanship and durability of this solid soap beveler and planer will be appreciated by experienced soap makers or those who produce large amounts of soap.


3. The Soap Seal


One Christmas, my darling sister-in-law got me a personalized Farm Girl Soap Co. soap stamp. Her thoughtfulness moved me, and as a result, it's now my #1 pick for a gift for any soap maker on my list.


For everyone who sells soaps or is considering making the move, a soap stamp is a must. She will love a stamp bearing the name of her nascent soap company.


Your soaper will appreciate a stamp bearing her initials or saying handmade, natural, or crafted with love, even if she doesn't sell. They add extra sparkle to that already excellent bar of homemade soap, plus they're fun to use.


If you search "custom soap stamp" on Etsy, a plethora of skilled artisans will be available for purchase.



4. A class or course on making soap (online or in-person)


Perhaps you know someone who has been considering making soap but hasn't gotten started yet. A class that teaches her how to craft soap by hand is a wonderful, one-of-a-kind gift.

Look into the parks and recreation department, the art studio, or the makerspace in your community. Occasionally, you could be fortunate enough to locate a nearby soap manufacturer who offers in-person classes.


Could I recommend my online soap making course if you are unable to locate a local soap maker? It is intended for the whole novice, particularly for those who are hesitant to use lye. Everything you need to create stunning, skin-healthy soap bars from scratch using my really easy techniques is covered in this course.


Visit my Online Schoolhouse to find out more about the course. After your purchase, send me an email and I'll send you a printed gift certificate that you can present to your soon-to-be soap maker if you'd like to offer the course as a gift. Best. Gift. Ever.


5. Books on Soap Making


I can say with certainty that those who create soap are constantly thirsty for new information. While we're not making a batch, we're brainstorming ideas for the next. A beautiful book about soap making with eye-catching illustrations will inspire your soap maker endlessly.

The Natural Soap Making Book for Beginners by Kelly Cable would be my choice if I could only choose one soap-making book—and believe me, that's a difficult decision. Huge fan of ingredient descriptions, recipes, and gorgeous images of soap.

I do, however, have a comprehensive list of my best soap making books for beginners here, if you really want to start building your soap making library.


6. Collections of Fragrances


There's never a shortage of scents! Hundreds of fragrance and essential oils fill a huge train case I own. I do add one or two new perfumes to my cart every time I peruse internet fragrance catalogs, though. Since it's fun to test new scents!


A collection of scented oils is a delightful and stimulating present that she will find immensely useful. Fabulous fragrance oil sets in a variety of collections are available at Wholesale Supplies Plus in huge quantities. Since the bottles aren't bundled together when they arrive, have a little gift box on available so you may arrange them into a lovely set.


Essential oils are ideal if your soap maker is committed to using only natural ingredients. Rocky Mountain Oils offers a high-quality sampling essential oil set with a wonderful selection for experimenting. It's ideal for melt and pour soap, because you only need a few drops per bar, because of the tiny bottles. Larger volumes are needed by cold process soap producers, such as the sets of essential oils available at Wholesale Supplies Plus.


7. Sets of Colorants


Colorants are a close second among interesting components for soap manufacturing, behind fragrance. Since sometimes we want those bars to pop, even though plain white soap is lovely!

Once more, there are an endless number of colorant sample sets available at Wholesale Supplies Plus. However, TKB Trading is my go-to source for colorants for soap production. Since they don't sell sets, you'll need to select individual colors to construct your own.


Since TKB Trading organizes their colorants by do-it-yourself project on their website, I prefer to purchase from them. It's simple to filter for the best colorants for manufacturing soap, as well as alternatives for vegan and dye-free soap colorants.


8. The Case for Essential Oils and Fragrances

Every soap producer has a vast collection of essential oils and fragrances. Assist her in keeping those tiny vials of liquid gold secure and accessible with a charming case.


Like me, who has to schlep all of my stuff up from the cellar every time I make soap, if she needs to transport her stockpile to the kitchen before she begins a batch, a case with a handle is quite useful.


My favorite type of carrying case is this one because it has enough area to accommodate bottles up to one ounce in size and securely keeps all of the oils. I use a silver train case for my large fragrance oil bottles, which range in size from 2 to 4 ounces. Big bottles at the bottom and little bottles at the top. It is also possible to keep colorant bags in the trays.


If the recipient of your present uses essential oils frequently, she'll probably want to store them out of the way for convenience. My "daily use" oils are stored in this wooden essential oil box that sits on my dining room sideboard. If the rustic ranch look isn't her thing, there are lots of alternative adorable essential oil package options available on Etsy.


9. Gift Card for Additional Supplies to Make Soap


Need to find her a gift she'll adore quickly? A lot of online soap vendors provide digital gift cards. Select the desired amount, generate the gift certificate, and insert it into a card. If you're not sure what she needs, this gift is ideal because she can buy to her little soap-loving heart's content. I promise you she has a running wish list inside her head.
