This email is copied below in all its glory, grammatical errors included. This was the only thing in the email. Nothing else. It’s a bit cryptic. I did my best to answer it in a professional and courteous manner. My expanded answer is below her note.

can i just put these items in the oven the cocoa butter ,canola and olive
oil to make the soap

No, you cannot put the three ingredients into the oven to make soap. There are a variety of steps and major safety considerations to take into account. I would highly recommend getting the DVD Learn to Make Cold Process Soap (https://www.brambleberry.com/books.html) or the book The Soapmaker’s Companion by Susan Mill Cavitch before you go any further in trying to make soap.

It’s a complex process that is easily learned, just like cooking, but it does take some time and research to learn it and ensure the safety of you and the people that use your soap.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.
