    About this ebook

    While this latest book of Kerri Newbury's' may well seem a slight step aside from her usual CP soap and candle crafting manuals, it certainly follows true to her usual straight forward, easy to follow, no nonsense, plain langangue style of writing.

    This book will teach anyone how to create their own silicone and latex rubber soap and candle moulds in no time at all, thereby saving them a great deal of money, while allowing them the opportunity to create their own custom designed soap and candle products as gifts, or for sale to the general public.

    This book could well be the starting point for anyone looking to begin their own cottage industry working from home in the making of, and selling moulds of all kinds.

    The price of this book will seem as nothing when you recognise, not only how much money it can save you in the cost of 'Store bought' moulds, but also how much it can increase your future potential income.

    This book is sure to become yet another runaway success!

      Introduction

      Because my daughters and I own and operate an ever expanding CP soap and candle making business we have become avid mould collectors and users.

      These tend to be mainly made from latex and silicone these days, and we use them on an almost daily basis in both our ‘standard’ and ‘novelty’ poured candle, and CP soap making production.

      Our mould collection began much as any other soap and candle maker’s would do, by purchasing the rigid vacuum formed plastic types from various sources around the world, but we soon found that rigid plastic moulds have huge limitations, while not standing up to the high working temperatures often required.
