Let me just say, this is one of my favorite soap recipes. The coming of fall is signaled by many things...one of which is making a batch of my famous pumpkin pie soap. It uses real pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice and fills the house with wonderful spicy fall scents.

To make this recipe you'll need:

For this particular recipe, I used my Grocery Store Soap Recipe, sized up to make a bit over 4.5 lbs.
  • 15.3 oz. Lard
  • 15.3 oz. Olive Oil
  • 12.8 oz. Coconut Oil
  • 2.5 oz. Castor Oil
  • 5.1 oz. Sunflower Oil
  • 3 tsp. of sugar in the water before the lye
  • 1.5 tsp of salt in the water before the lye
  • 3 oz. of canned pumpkin
  • 2 tsp. of pumpkin pie spice
  • 2.2 oz of Pumpkin Pie fragrance oil
  • 7.2 oz. Lye
  • 11.5 oz. of water (discounted 3 oz. to make up for the pumpkin)
Get all of your ingredients and equipment ready (including pre-measuring out all of your additives) and let's get started!
