Hi Mnetters. What is the best soap making book out there? Never made soap before but very keen to try!

No soap makers out there with a favourite book?

I will lurk but cannot help, not a craft I have ever tried before but have been tempted to try.

I've just bought one from amazon called The Handmade Soap Book - after reading various reviews on there about other books that are about melting down soaps and adding colours & fragrances - this book is apparently the real deal and covers making soap the proper way with all the gubbins... Not tried it yet though.

But, the short version is - check the reviews on amazon and decide from there. Depends really if you want full info, lots of pictures, basic stuff etc etc.
