Gone with the soaps

Hello, The watchful eye will have noticed the stock level of our Marseille soap which seems more like the level of available water in California. Handmade Marseille soaps and cornucopia will obviously never match. So what's next? The good news is that we are having right now a load of soaps on their way to the boat. This merchandise should arrive in Montreal around mid-January, perhaps a little earlier. This applies to all Marseille soaps with the reference code starting with the letter L, like this one . The bad news is that Marseille soaps with code beginning with the letter S are not yet manufactured, for example cubes soaps for the laundry (household). As I am writing those words, we can not give an estimate of arrival but it would be surprising to receive those soaps before the end of February. Of course and as we often hear in the Montreal's Metro: other messages will follow. Meanwhile, we will take care of our website, improve a thing or two and take it ea

Household Marseille cube soaps reloaded.

We just received household Marseille soaps from France! As you may know, when a household Marseilles soap has just been made, it contains a lot of water. Our soap makers put them on wooden shelves in order to let them dry. However, when those soaps arrive here in Canada, they are still a little bit wet, so we too have to let them rest on wooden shelves for a bit. Here is what a "wall" of olive oil soaps look like!

Here comes a new Marseille cube soap.

A new scented soap is now available in our catalog : the orange blossom Marseille cube soap . It is also a gently exfoliating soap, still a lot less exfoliating than other scented cubes 300 grams. If you like orange blossom fragrance, you can find it in different forms of soaps : 250g oval soap and our small 25g heart-shaped soap.

Spring will bring more soaps

Obviously we are running out of stock of some Marseille soaps. This is due to a very successful Christmas market which has drown our stock down, much more than expected. Of course out Christmas market is a good excuse. To be honest, the guy who manage our stock (me) is to blame. Since I can not fire myself, I did the only think possible: ordering more soaps from France. So here we go, we have right now a big order in process in Marseille and it should arrive in Canada at the beginning of spring. Soon enough to have some snow left on the ground as we will be heading to pick up our pallets...
