Well, the first 150 bars of soap are gone like a flash. GONE. We are doubling the sizes of our molds.

We remade all of our scents and have added 4 new scents. Folks are buying these by the dozen. Have had orders for 50 more bars yesterday and today.

We just added peppermint and Aloe

yankee,
Was wondering what your price is and the weight of the bar?

Yankee11 · « **Reply #24 on:** December 01, 2015, 08:10:39 am »

You got it Jen.

Neill, The bars are cut 1 inch thick and are weighing around 5 oz. Right now we are asking 5 each.

Sounds like a pretty good margin to me, well done.

Couple of new soaps.

The brown is a soap we made for a local coffee bar that is carrying and using our honey. It's a Cappuccino Soap made with brewed coffee and their coffee grounds mixed in for a scrub. Smells incredible

The green is a Aloe soap. Made with 100% real Aloe instead of water mixed with the lye.

We are also working on a wooden Soap Saver tray. We wanna burn our logo into the wood on the top with a branding iron.

Can you send a pm with a price list. And would you consider shipping some this way.

Very nice looking product. I don't know where you find the time.

My wife refers to guys like us "joe joe the circus monkeys!"

Don't ever let my wife know there's such a thing as coffee soap! I can only begin to imagine the power bill for hot water.

Perry.

It came out pretty cool when we cut it.

Another batch of our Aloe

Very cool pictures, Yankee! You and your wife have a real knack for packaging and presentation, if those are appropriate words. It's very eye catching.
I'm with CBT. Can you pm me a price list? This would be great for presents. I bet the Cappuccino Bar would be great for a morning shower.

CBT · « **Reply #33 on:** December 27, 2015, 05:51:23 pm »

A shower that smells like coffee. Im in.

Yankee11 · « **Reply #34 on:** December 27, 2015, 07:44:00 pm »

Sent you a PM CBT.

Will send you one Bakersdozen.

and will respond to yours Lb

Valentines soap.

Honey Bee Mine, Sweat Pea, White Roses, Hello Sweat Thang and Luv Spell

That does look good enough to eat. Fabulous

Thought we needed some Cedar Soap trays to go along with the soaps wee sell. Hand cut Arkansas Cedar.
What do ya think?

Really nice looking stuff. Yankee I'm curious, is this now a full time gig for you, the bees and all the value added, or are you still side-lining? You have extended and expanded so quickly it's amazing.

Yankee11 · « **Reply #39 on:** January 03, 2016, 10:37:56 am »

Still sidelining.

My son is helping me know

he want's a bee jacket and a hive.

And yes, we are covered up. Sold out of our 220 gallons by Christmas. But can't keep up with you

This soap is going crazy. Be interesting to see how things go come spring. We are doubling the size of our soap out put already. We made some new molds out of HDPE plastic so we don't have to line with wax paper. Save us a bunch of time, And these will pour 25 bars each instead of 12. Found a local source for the HDPE sheets.
