Looking for a gift making course that could translate into business idea?

Or simply to pamper yourself?

Most melt and pour soap workshops merely cover colouring and scenting of soap bases. Here at Go Create we’ve created an extreme version: to push melt and pour to its limits. We’ll cover melt and pour from all angles to ensure you have a good understanding of how to exploit melt and pour to its potential whilst creating some truely impressive samples. Be warned, some may look and smell too good to use.

This workshop focuses on  boutique style cakes and gateaux with plenty of sweet looking soaps to take home. Students will be encouraged to create their own personalised variation on a theme with our support whilst putting new found skills into practice. This is a hands-on and fragrant experience.

Simply book for the experience or to learn a craft making skill that will change appreciation of soap and the simple daily experience of mindful hand washing with your very own hand made soap! if you make to much this also makes the perfect, thoughtful gift which passes on the love!

  • Soap base types and labelling
