This is NOT a physical product. This listing is for a downloadable PDF file of our Orange & Bergamot AND Bergamot Lime soap recipe. 

This soap was a main product line soap for years and is a proven bestseller!

This soap recipe is all-natural and palm-oil free! It is not vegan as it contains goat milk. You could use coconut milk (or another plant-based milk) as a substitute.

This soap is really special as it's a soap that is very high in shea butter. In fact, shea butter can be listed as the first ingredient on your soap label! This is one of those recipes that many people with sensitive skin rave about as it is so gentle and works for nearly everyone. Plus, the scent is universally well-loved!

BONUS: You also get our Bergamot Lime recipe when you purchase this download!

This recipe is great for a beginner that wants to experiment with a little natural color and try a simple essential oils blend! The high shea butter does end up bringing the soap to trace a little faster, but it is manageable.

This is a comprehensive 13-page PDF download, which includes a one-page quick recipe that you can easily print and a full step-by-step instruction guide. We also include the recipe calculator from soapcalc.net.

Please note that this is a beginner/intermediate recipe and is not intended for a brand new soapmaker! Do not purchase unless you're confident that you can do the following:

  • make and use a 50/50 lye-water solution (instructions included)
  • use additional liquids (goat milk)

Essential oils used in this recipe:

  • bergamot, orange, lime

If you've made soap before, you shouldn't have any trouble following the instructions, even if you've never made a 50/50 lye-water solution. We walk you through all the steps but having a few batches under your belt will definitely benefit you!

This recipe is the exact recipe we use to make our Orange & Bergamot soap that has been part of our main product line for years. Since we won't be making it very often, we've decided to share it with all of you! It is also the recipe we use for Bergamot Lime (included!).

You may NOT share or re-sell this recipe PDF. You are welcome to make and sell the soap you make from this recipe, with credit to Muddy Mint. You may also call your soap Orange & Bergamot and let people know that it's the same soap we used to make!

Orange and Bergamot

I made the lime bergamot and put avocado puree in it. Turned out great!

Orange bergamot soap recipe

Please clarify the lie ratio to a water ratio in the recipe. Is that the actual measurement and ounces thank you.

Hi Judi,

The recipe contains the actual ounces (and grams) of the individual lye and water amounts. In addition, we include the water to lye ratio for your information so that you can use it to enter the recipe into a lye calculator.

As you may or may not know, when entering a recipe into a lye calculator like Soap Calc, you will need to know either the (1) water as percent of oils, (2) lye concentration, or (3) water to lye ratio. We provide this information for you so that you can accurately enter the recipe. If you're not sure about how to do this, we have a YouTube video that goes into detail on how to use Soap Calc. This ratio is not typically provided in soap recipes, so many people have to calculate it themselves, so I'm just trying to make things easier for you! However, if you scroll down to the actual recipe, you will see that every ingredient has an amount written next to it, including the lye and the water. We also include the amount to use if you're using a 50/50 lye water solution.

Finally, if you're having trouble with something, I have included my email on the last page of the PDF download so that you can contact me directly. I'd prefer you do that if you're confused about something, rather than leaving a 3-star review with a question. I hope this helps!

Thanks!
Simi
