Creating Gradients in Cold Process Soap HANDOUT

Creating Gradients: The Math   

Creating Gradients in cold process soap takes a little bit of planning (and some math), but the end results can be absolutely gorgeous! 

Handout: This comprehensive handout explains how to create four different gradients:

• 2 Color / 7 Layer
• 2 Color / 9 Layer
• 3 Color / 7 Layer
• 3 Color / 9 Layer

This handout will walk you through how to set up layers to create an even gradient throughout your soap.  It contains step by step instructions as well as examples so you can confidently make your own gradient soaps!  This 22 page handout also includes blank templates that you can print and use to create your gradient soap.  You can watch Jennifer's YouTube series on creating gradients HERE if you'd like to see a visual explanation on creating gradients.

NOTE: This handout teaches you how to create gradients.  It is an intermediate soap making skill and assumes you understand the basics of cold process soap making.
