Teach Soap

Hi all,
I know I saw a calculation of this somewhere on a site but can't find it now. Anyone know where this is?

Or please let me know how you are pricing your soaps.

Thanks!!!

This is great, thanks for posting the link. I used to charge by ounce so a 5 oz soap was $5.00 but now I add on based on design, whether I added shea butter, used an expensive EO etc.

Wow, I was charging 2 dollars, maybe 3 for my soaps. I have only been able to sell one so far, Etsy doesn't seem to be working, nor E-crater. I had one on Ebay for an auction; and the winning bid was $2.25 for a 3.5 ounce soap!!!! Don't know what I'm doing wrong!!!

Just incredible ask and you shall receive a current number of what the costs are for material for a bar of soap. Of course your mileage may vary depending on what size supplies you purchase. From Soapqueen regarding 36 bars of cold process soaps.

Price of materials per bar: $1.00 per bar

I do think you have to be both competitive and consistent in your pricing. If your materials get too costly, and you want to sell, maybe some alterations might be considered.

I still price by the ounce, although some of my retailers just average their cost and price them all the same... even when there is an ounce difference. Mine retail for $1.60 per ounce.
