Katie I love your positivity so much, there’s a lot of gatekeeping and territoriality in the soap making community, and hearing someone who is such a prominent leader in the community not buy into that is so refreshing, thank you ❤
I feel the same way about the Tumbler community as well like so much gatekeeping when it’s like you want you wanna showcase your hobby so more people can do it
Several years ago the Great British Bake Off had an Opera Cake challenge and one of the contestants made a 'soap opera' cake. It was amazing and a great play on words, so I am fully in favour of this idea!
I love your comment you made about the giving away recipes and stuff and telling people how to do it was best summed up in a video from a few years ago "they're not my competition, they're my community" i wish more people would think like that (I'm a musician & artist & it can be very isolating because people view you as competition when community would benefit everybody)
Katie, thank you for the shout out! I agree with you... my first soaps were made from ingredients from the dollar store, and that made a lovely bar of soap too, nothing like what I've used before! My recipe has evolved from there as I tried different things, but most people will NOT be able to tell the different unless a soap is really stripping (high in coconut oil) and/or some recipes do work better with hard water than others (it kills the lather some and tends to make a soap feel more drying, so higher superfats are a must). ❤
Oh boy, I'm turning 36 next week and I also started skateboarding last year! As a teen I was always afraid to look stupid while learning, so I just didn't. But last year my partner just said "Let's do it!". We tried it together, we looked stupid together, got better together and now we both love it and have so much fun with a new shared hobby.
For many years I suffered with skin allergies due to soaps and household cleaners, etc. I’ve been watching your videos many years now, well before you married & had kids, I’ve bought your soaps and never once had any problems with them irritating my skin! After a few years of watching and contemplating on making cold process soap (I did the melt & pour first which helped my skin too) I finally started making my own using your recipe and how-to videos. Albeit, I did replace the sweet almond oil with apricot kernel oil due to my youngest daughter’s tree nut allergies. I absolutely love the soaps and they’re moisturizing and creamy. Even my fiancé noted how his skin is softer and not dry after using the soaps. Now it’s all we use. I still buy your soaps and my daughters have bought them as gifts too to me bc even though I make our own now I still love getting your soaps. Tbh, one of my daughters has several saved on her shelf and refuses to use them Bc they’re so pretty. 😊
Katie, you are amazing!!! My number 1 inspiration! When I am looking for new soaping ideas, I search for YOU! My husband says, "my God, she sure can talk!" And I say "I wouldn't want it any other way!" You are so upbeat and lift my spirits! Thanks for being YOU!
I watch for Katie AND the soaps, but it wouldn't be the same without Katie's upbeat outlook and discussions, that's for sure; that really does keep me around longer. There were other soap makers I watched more a few years ago, but as I got busier and didn't have as much time, it was Katie I didn't want to miss out on the most and who I've continued to keep up with. She was also the first soap maker I started watching, too! >V
I can vouch the SOAP FROSTING CLUB is an amazing starter kit for beginner soap makers. HIGHLY RECOMMEND buying. Worth it, worth it worth it. Plus you get a cute pin.
Lisa's soaps are amazing works of art! I'm one of her OG's on I Dream in Soap and I couldnt believe it when she said she saw Safiya Nygaard's first bar of soap and that inspired her to make soap.
I wish I could comment a picture. My "teenager kitten" was obsessed with this video. 😂 She literally pawed at it. She's never noticed the TV before! It was so silly.
i LIVE for the technical soap talk, both business and data, and like safety protocols!!! 💗💗💗 you're my favorite creator when I feel stressed or low, you immediately cheer me up
I bought some soap when on holiday in Japan, and I had no idea what it was because I was still learning the language. Found out later, it was made from Donkey milk! 😂😂 Side note, it was some of the best soap I've ever tried.
Like I've said before, your soap healed my hands. I have dermatitis and it has kept my hands good even with winter weather. And your soap smells good enough to eat!!
Katie! Girl, I just love you! You are so kind and generous. I personally would not make soap. But my granddaughter might and I love that you share the experience and no how. You were raised right❤ Don't change you ever... thank you for being here. 😊
*You are the reason I want to start up soaping again after my biz tanked during Covid. Everything you said is right on. I love that you care about other soapmakers and that you still have your soap frosting kits for sale (I bought mine years ago😉). You give me such hope! I’ve struggled while being on SSDI and had to move to get away from a traumatic toxic situation so my equipment is in storage BUT hopefully in the next few months I can bring it home. God has really hung in there with me through some stuff these last few years however I’m still trying. Thank you so very much for the encouragement and support as well as recipes and things to help us succeed. You’re awesome, and everyone on your team is too! Huge hugz, Tree*
I have noticed a big change in my skin since I started using your products a year ago. I used to have very dry skin in the winter, the kind that would make me use hair brush to scratch my legs. It recently occurred to me that I haven't been itchy or dry this winter. Thank you so much!
I'm so glad you shouted out Creamy Obsession!!! Marina is so kind and thoughtful whenever I've ordered from her, I actually live in KOREA now lol and she's always been nothing but kind and wonderful giving me the best, easiest experience shipping all the way out here! she even includes extra bonus FULL bars of soap on top of the beautiful samples she sends me and I am proud to support wonderful soap makers like her and yourself ^^ I love some of Marina's creations so much I have even ordered extra bars of some of my favorite scent blends of hers just to keep forever so I can still smell them again from time to time! and I've found her bars have some of the softest lush lather while giving my hands that soft lush clean feeling you mentioned, on top of looking absolutely stunning. and watching her videos of her scraping out the layers of soap is actually very soothing to me! so it's nice to be able to go between listening to your wonderful talks and her soothing soap videos as well
You give the best pep talks! It's never too late to learn something. I started crocheting at age 23 and now I'm almost 36 and haven't stopped. I just bought my 2- year- old daughter a pair of roller skates so I can teach her to skate with me! We enjoyed the Texas sunshine today also while she fell a bunch of times.
@@katielattey7545 You got this! The best way is to sit down next to a friend to learn, but RUclips is also a great resource if you're a visual learner.
Katie, you are EVERYTHING that is right in this world! You're the absolute personification of supporting and believing in one another! You are too pure and must be protected at all costs!
The mika lines were not adding enaugh to warrant the time and cost, good call to remove them. I would have loved to see a bit more red, maybe a little swirl in the 'filling', just to tie in with the cherry embeds and because of the fragrance. I think calling this tacky is an overstatment, it's just kitch in the best way possible😊
Lisa at I Dream in Soap is just amazing! Also, she's in the UK, so shipping to my family there is better. And I agree with you Katie, about budget soaping. The cold process we make at home is likely to be better than mass manufactured soap, because most of the big soap makers separate out glycerin to sell separately, making a less luxurious bar (at least to me). I absolutely love how you support your viewers and your fellow soapers. You're awesome!
Katie: "Skateboarding, roller blading, roller skating..." LOL, did you forget it's January? 😁 Not too many people have that kind of weather right now! I just shoveled 18" of snow!
Yes, please shoot more frosting club videos!! I think some don't load anymore, and don't fully match the pdf anymore. I still LOVE the set and it is a FANTASTIC deal!!!
And you're right, the frosting recipe behaves amazingly well -- I've never gotten ash or overheating either. It pipes like a dream!! I make a lot of soap cupcakes with crazy dragons, spiders, robots, etc on top for kids' birthday parties, and your frosting recipe is THE BEST BEST BEST!!!
I just binge watched every one of your videos in the past the 3 weeks. Im so bummed that i missed out on some of your past soaps. Your such an amazing soul and honestly im a little sad that i have no more videos to catch up on. I look forward to all upcoming videos and I will be purchasing soap as soon as i can afford to do so! Much love from Canada ❤
I have ordered (from Canada) from I dream in Soap to have it sent directly to family in the UK. They are always amazed at the detailed designs. Lisa is fascinating to watch. It’s lovely that you gave her channel a shout out. I have ordered from you as well, for myself :) and I make my own (usually M&P) for friends and family. Nice soap makes people happy (and clean)
Soapyfluffs stepping in here as a Royalty Soap Frosting Club member... if you're on the fence and you're starting out..DO IT! This kit saves me so much time so much money and the MICAS are so worth it I still use them a year later! Ok, I'm done thanks Katie your recipe is great. Your club is great! Ps, I can smell this soap through the TV!
Ps I'm not ashamed to say as a starter soaper a year ago I did the math on your kit you know every $ counts. And nope you can't get what this kit offers for the price!
Katie, I’m glad to hear another soaper boldly put the truth out there about the hype of additives in soaps. I’ve enjoyed watching you grow your business and family over the years and I pray for both on a regular basis. I keep hoping you’ll branch out and become a supplier. 😉
My 6yr old and I love to watch your. Videos together. Tonight I finally bought some to surprise him! I'm so glad you still had some in stock with out any floral scents!! ❤❤❤
A little tale for you. I have made cold process soap, mainly as gifts but they were still cold process soap, various oils various essential oils, various clays. That was a while ago and about 7 years since I made a bar. I now buy from a soap maker here in the UK and buy her Castile soap, just olive oil, no scent or additives, just good soap. I still buy other soaps for other people, but good old Castile is what is in my bathroom.
My favorite valentine's treat is a family tradition. Growing up, my mom would make heart shaped pancakes for breakfast. And for dinner we'd all make heart shaped pizzas together. I stopped doing this after my divorce took its toll on me but I'd like to start it up again. My mom and I have made valentine's plans together a few times since my divorce. We go get a couples massage and go out to dinner together. Time with her is the best treat of all (though a dessert that looks like this soap is a solid third best, and a video from you is the second).
Oh Katie, Kaarin is just adorable, you two share the same happy vibe, while having different decorating sense for homes, she would ABSOLUTELY LOVE your soaps! Definitely send her a care package, I know she'll shout it out on her channel!!!
I appreciate your attitude toward creativity and making! I’m not a soap maker (at least not yet) but I think your attitude would apply to a lot of types of making. ❤❤
Love the idea of the scent, and the top is just perfect... but I'm unsure about an almost-all-brown bar - would've loved to see a thin red (soap) line above the white to indicate cherry filling, perhaps? As for the QOTD: I'm a fan of straight chocolate truffles, the creamier the better.
Looks great! I’m still working on layering! Lol. I tried making a red and green layered soap, and the red turned out pink and sank through the green to rest on the bottom of the bar. It turned out pretty well though and the soap looks more like a watermelon 🍉. 😂
Hello my darling. I forgot soap making videos existed and remembered you and your amazing channel this morning. I'm spending my day off binging all the videos I have missed!!! I'm so happy to see you are still here and making your wonderous soaps and embeds ❤❤❤❤
I absolutely love your vibe and happiness. I didn't get to thank you for being U on an Instagram message cause I ran off at the mouth so long I ran out of space so I'm telling you now!! U just don't know the incredible happiness you've brought me . Weather it be your goofiness, your teaching, your incredible devotion to your family or your business or the " you can do anything" u tell us - u absolutely make us out here feel just like one of the gals/guys!! Thank u from the bottom of my heart ❤!
Someday, I will buy one of your peppermint soaps. I watch your videos regularly. You are a calming presence, and the videos are easy watching for my brain at night. ❤❤
That's how I started making soap, I started making soap out just cheap lard and lye and then later added dollar tree olive oil, and was just making it for my family because it was cheaper than buying soap and we were very poor at the time and with a large family i was always looking for ways to save money then later on when we had a little more money and watching so many different soaping videos I started adding different oils and butters and then fragrances then colors it came slowly but it became fun too. I still only make it for my family and friends, they tell me to sell them but I'm not there yet I don't feel like I at a skill level that i could sell them still just a fun and useful hobby that I enjoy and that's fine by me.
Katie, your sweater is very pretty! Love the Chocolate Cherry Ganashe. Suggestion: how about a chocolate coffee caramel soap? Like a mocha caramel latte. Can you add hyaluronic acid, which is good for skin, to cold process and/or melt and pour? ❤
I appreciate the honesty in this video. I've only been soap making for 5 years off and on but I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels this way about soap and soap making ❤❤❤
Wow thirty-five fragrance oils for one scent! I bet it smells amazing. As a beginner/intermediate soap maker, I would love a video someday. It's something I've only tried a handful of times, and I'd love to hear your process on it!
Omgosh this soap looks amazing!!! I wish smell-a-vision were a thing! And Katy…you can surf! There is a surf park in Texas…although idk how close you are to it, in Waco!
It doesn't feel tacky. It looks and feels (through the display) as a schwarzwälderkirschtorte (I try to translate: black forest cherry cake, it's a traditional cake in Germany - cake is not really the correct term. A "Torte" is with stiff cream or maybe buttercream, mostly cream. A cake / Kuchen in German is just the baked part, no icing)
I found your channel just today and am really enjoying your enthusiasm! I want to make soap to sell at my roadside stand with handmade washcloths. You are so fun to learn from but my soap will not likely be near as fancy as yours! Haha
Angry rose is my favorite!! I only use MadMicas. I do get trial by fire from TKB I think and I get Kelly Green n snow flake mica from Bramble Berry. Don’t use TD ever I use Snow White Mica from MadMicas. They are fantastic. I use all there glitters. I was thinking about trying the glitter from the good glitter. Beautiful soap!
The soap frosting club is amazing. I learned how to make soap via Katie’s soap making series and the soap frosting club this summer. Next step is to learn how to render tallow (I am able to get suet from a local butcher for a great price) & learn how to make CP soap with tallow as part of the fats.
I have tried all natural, organic, essential oil colored and scented, Royalty Soaps bars are BETTER! They feel creamier and my skin does not get dry. Plus, Royalty Soaps bars are beautiful 😍
Katie's version of "getting spicy": providing ethical and honest information to customers
Katie I love your positivity so much, there’s a lot of gatekeeping and territoriality in the soap making community, and hearing someone who is such a prominent leader in the community not buy into that is so refreshing, thank you ❤
I feel the same way about the Tumbler community as well like so much gatekeeping when it’s like you want you wanna showcase your hobby so more people can do it
You should totally make a soap based on an opera cake. Those cake designs feel right up your alley.
Several years ago the Great British Bake Off had an Opera Cake challenge and one of the contestants made a 'soap opera' cake. It was amazing and a great play on words, so I am fully in favour of this idea!
That would be awesome! Maybe a whole pastry collection

Katie, your sweater is very pretty! Love the Chocolate Cherry Ganashe. Suggestion: how about a chocolate coffee caramel soap? Like a mocha caramel latte. Can you add hyaluronic acid, which is good for skin, to cold process and/or melt and pour? ❤
I appreciate the honesty in this video. I've only been soap making for 5 years off and on but I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels this way about soap and soap making ❤❤❤
You are so right ! This soap is so Kaarin !
Awww this soap really reminds me of The Cake from the game Portal .. thank you for making it, I love it a lot.
The Soap Frosting Club kit is definitely worth it!
I love the video ideas of making soaps with other ingredients to see what actually makes a difference or not!
Love your videos. And you are so right they so many people in the world that there room for everyone to sell soap too!
God Bless you, Katie!!!
it's giving black forest!! so cute
Your soaps are amazing! I love the Royalty Frosting Box… since using it my soaps really stand out. Thank you!
Wow thirty-five fragrance oils for one scent! I bet it smells amazing. As a beginner/intermediate soap maker, I would love a video someday. It's something I've only tried a handful of times, and I'd love to hear your process on it!
I love the frosting recipe! A new video would be great!
We love you, Katie. 💖
I’m definitely going to purchase the Soap frosting kit! Thanks for reminding us about it.
I got the frosting club kit and it's amazing! I highly recommend it!
Omgosh this soap looks amazing!!! I wish smell-a-vision were a thing! And Katy…you can surf! There is a surf park in Texas…although idk how close you are to it, in Waco!
Love the white layer.
This channel makes me happy!
Thank you for inspiring me to rethink my soap recipe.
It doesn't feel tacky. It looks and feels (through the display) as a schwarzwälderkirschtorte (I try to translate: black forest cherry cake, it's a traditional cake in Germany - cake is not really the correct term. A "Torte" is with stiff cream or maybe buttercream, mostly cream. A cake / Kuchen in German is just the baked part, no icing)
Love the drizzle on top!
I found your channel just today and am really enjoying your enthusiasm! I want to make soap to sell at my roadside stand with handmade washcloths. You are so fun to learn from but my soap will not likely be near as fancy as yours! Haha
I really want to try making soap, it seems like so much fun!
Nice! Love the soap Katie! ❤
Angry rose is my favorite!! I only use MadMicas. I do get trial by fire from TKB I think and I get Kelly Green n snow flake mica from Bramble Berry. Don’t use TD ever I use Snow White Mica from MadMicas. They are fantastic. I use all there glitters. I was thinking about trying the glitter from the good glitter. Beautiful soap!
Just joined the soap frosting club
It's beautiful and I wish there was red in the frosting! Or maybe red swirls in the middle white area
Can you do a video on how to make different imbeds?? Those chocolate curls are adorable !!
For the middle I suggest an in the pot swirl with red and white instead of just plain white
The poured color( before discoloration) is perfect for peanut butter
The soap frosting club is amazing. I learned how to make soap via Katie’s soap making series and the soap frosting club this summer. Next step is to learn how to render tallow (I am able to get suet from a local butcher for a great price) & learn how to make CP soap with tallow as part of the fats.
I just made last week a one lb test batch with sunflower oil instead of olive oil and we birch love it so much! Thank you
I need the sweater you are wearing in this intro and outro!!!
Thank you Katie ❤
I have tried all natural, organic, essential oil colored and scented, Royalty Soaps bars are BETTER! They feel creamier and my skin does not get dry. Plus, Royalty Soaps bars are beautiful 😍
I was on the fence about buying the soap frosting kit, but listening to you talk about it really helped me make up my mind.
Katie this looks good enough to eat. I guess we have to wait till this weekend to get it? Great Valentines day gifts.
Favorite Valentine’s Day dessert is homemade tres leches with strawberries!
Love listening to you Katie, you're so encouraging! Also, that's a super cute sweater
Fresh tyme also has cold
Processed hand made soap.
