Now, you can pack the finished soap into a block-bottom gift bag, close it with ribbons and fasten the stamped wooden tag onto it.Additional info: The soap dries or rather carries on ripening and becomes thereby firmer (two up to three weeks).

Clean the soap casting mould and the pots with hot water.
