Testimonials

“In such a short period we learn a tremendous amount of techniques that were easy to understand and put over in a non scientific way to aid understanding and comprehension. The course certainly motivates delegates a well as fully equipping them with the knowledge to get started immediately.  A highly recommended programme.

“Candle making: Was a very informative friendly course. 
  
The time went by too quickly. I was buzzing when I got home.”


I would like to thank Soap School for giving me the knowledge and understanding of how to make soaps and candles. I have attended a few workshops, but the ones i enjoyed the most were the Advanced Melt & Pour Soap Crafting and also the candle making.  It inspired me so much that i have now started my own candle business using that knowledge which was taught to me about the wicks and melt pool, different wax, and the fragrances.
I would recommend these courses to anyone interested in soaps and candles.
