Soap Care and cutting after shipment:
-
Unwrap loaf and sit "open air" in a room with good air circulation, low humidity, and low dust. If ideal conditions are not available, store soap loaf loosely in clean cloth. Note: Until you cut the loaf, it will not entirely dry on the inside. Therefore, if you plan to cut in front of customers, inform them that they need to allow the soap to dry in open air before use (for best performance).
-
If you desire to cut the loaves immediately: simply use either a (safe) large knife, dough cutter (or crinkle cutter), or cheese slicer/cutter if you do not have a soap loaf cutter. Cut to desired width.
-
Allow soap to dry until firm to touch. Some soaps take longer than others but it will usually only take several days at the most. In humid, hot, or "still" environments the soap could take much longer, try using oscilating fans to ventilate the room.
Note: Do NOT heat the soap in an attempt to make it dry more quickly, this may ruin the soap. Do NOT set soap in the sun as this will discolor or ruin the soap. Do NOT put soap in shrink wrap until it is fully dry (we do not recommend shrink wrap in any case, but if it is desired, be sure the soap is dry)
