The Soap Kitchen Serves Up Delicious Guilt-Free Bars of Pleasure

Consumers now have a healthier choice in soaps.

Pasadena, CA, December 8, 2006 /SOAPWIRE/ – Hand-made natural soap is no longer the heavy lard bar that grandma used to make in her home kitchen. Today, natural hand-made soaps is making a luxurious come back into our lives as the consumer trend toward buying products that are healthy, natural and compassionate to the environment gains momentum. According to The Hartman Group, 6% of Americans have used organic and natural products in the past year, up 55% from 2000. Consumers are now finding that luxury lathers in natural soaps. It’s no wonder that The Soap Kitchen is constantly working to restock their shelves.

The Soap Kitchen produces all natural hand-made soaps in their onsite kitchen on a daily basis to service the many loyal shoppers who are snapping up their bars in record numbers. Sales at The Soap Kitchen have increased by more than 43% in the last year. The appeal is the simple packaging and the natural beauty of the soap bars themselves. Unpackaged loaves of soap presented in rustic form appeal to consumers much like shopping for fresh fruit or vegetables at a farmers market; shoppers can't help but pick up the soap, inhale the aroma, admire the natural ingredients, buy it and then come back for more. Loyal customers are addicted to these luxurious bars that look and smell good enough to eat.

This kitchen resembles an actual commercial restaurant kitchen, and is filled with pure ingredients you’re likely to find in your own. The shelves are stocked with olive oil, peppermint, chamomile, orange peel, lavender and rosemary, just to name a few. Master soap chef, Dali Yu says, “My passion for natural soaps developed when one day I panicked at the sight of a tiny sliver of soap from my first natural soap bar that a friend gave me. This is when I realized that I needed to learn the methods behind these soaps and share this experience with others.” By refining and modernizing age old methods of soap making, her specially formulated vegan bars are filled only with wonderful wholesome goodness. The Soap Kitchen uses only the finest ingredient with no artificial colors, fragrances or preservatives commonly found in commercial soaps. It’s no wonder this kitchen serves up delicious guilt-free bars of pleasure.
