Melt and Pour BasesThe Melt & Pour process differs from the Cold Process or Hot Process in that no soap is made (i.e. no actual saponification occurs) in the process; a melt and pour soap base acquired in commerce is melted in a microwave oven or double-boiler and additional items such as fragrances, essential oils, colorants, or exfoliating agents are added. While still hot, the concoction can be poured into sheet molds, tray molds, or blocks which - upon cooling - can be sliced.
Melt and pour does not give the soaper complete control over the ingredients (i.e., the choice of fat to use). Most soaps do not melt readily once they have saponified; the exceptions are clear glycerin soaps, and white soap made from white coconut oil.
See below for our selection of soap bases.
Some soapmakers prefer melt and pour because the process is easy and allows the soapmaker to concentrate more on the aesthetic aspects of soap making. It also avoids the need to handle lye, which is a hazardous and very caustic chemical.
