Amazon Customer said Well worth the money spent.. This is one of the better books I've read so far. The recipes are large, but the first few batches you make will probably be given away, so these are big enough for you to keep some as well as give away. The history given is helpful, it was a pleasure to read. As for the methods she uses with the blender, it is alot of work, but it is faster than stirring by hand. Personally, I use my stick blender, less work all around. It is not nessasary to use palm or coconut oils in soap, and they aren't even the b. Skye said The recipes were good but.. I liked Caseys recipes butit was almost tiring just reading her instructions,likestart with this pan,then put the mixture in that panthen stir both pans at the same time.I make and mix my soap in one pan,it's really not that difficult.I agree with another reviewer who said it does'nt have to be a team effort.The best soapmaking book I have ever bought is "The Everything Soapmaking Book" by Alicia Grosso. This book has all the information you will ever need to make really beautiful handmade soap.. "Five Stars" according to Amazon Customer. Awesome resource!
