On the Curing Rack: Pumpkin Pie Soap

Pumpkin Pie Soap by Great Cakes SoapworksI’m so excited to show you the Pumpkin Pie soap! It turned out wonderful! Fortunately I made enough for you, your neighbor, and your neighbor’s dog, should you all need some.

There are several benefits to adding real pumpkin puree to the soap. According to Lori Van Wormer, L.E., “Pumpkin’s acids, along with Vitamins A, C, E, minerals and replenishing enzymes make it a great exfoliant, breakout inhibitor, and pore refiner for your skin.” While I don’t recommend this as a facial soap because of the synthetic fragrance oil, it will make a wonderful body bar. Fresh goat’s milk contributes to the super creamy lather.

The scent is good and strong, so even if you don’t want to use it right away, your bathroom will still be fragrant. I’m going to tell on my friend Sarah. She bought this soap from me last year and used it as a hand soap in her bathroom – only after warning her husband not to use the “pretty side”.
