OverSoyed Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 What are your thoughts?I was looking at getting some M&P bases from The Candle Maker's Store in OH.... they run $10ish for 5lb.However, I noticed that Bram has they a lot cheaper.Has anyone tried either of the two? Perhaps a better suggestions comparable pricing?Thanks In Advance! Tristan:cheesy2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earthfriendly Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 What about Southern Soapers, check them out they are close to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OverSoyed Posted March 2, 2009 Author Share Posted March 2, 2009 What about Southern Soapers, check them out they are close to you.$8.95 / 2 lbs I'm assuming you have used them before, and they are good? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earthfriendly Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Hi, no I have not used their M&P bases yet. I'm planning on playing around with M&P soaps soon. They just had a pre-buy with free shipping. You can figure in shipping on all your options and see which one is less expensive for you. Sorry I wasn't any help. I'm sure some of the soap experts here will chime in with some good suggestions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elfcat Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I've tried the brambleberry bases and they were nice. The only one I didn't like was the Low sweat white. I don't make a lot of soap at one time so I usually get the sampler when I order. (1 lb of 7 different types for 20.) There shipping is very reasonable and they also always throw in a sample of FO.

Carrie Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Do a search in this section for Bramble Berry. There was a post about them not long ago. I think in January. They were offering a 25lb block for $37 plus flat rate shipping. Less than $50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlottesmom Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Elfcat, I was planning on buying some of the low sweat white and clear from BrambleBerry....can I ask why you didn't like it (you may save me some $$!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeAnna_EC Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 bramble berry has very nice bases, the shipping is reasonable.If you only order small amounts then i would definitely go with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elfcat Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Elfcat, I was planning on buying some of the low sweat white and clear from BrambleBerry....can I ask why you didn't like it (you may save me some $$!).I think it was the feel of the finished bars. They felt chalky to me. They set fine and the lather was OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
