Thank you for everyone’s patience as we get our whipped tallow cream back in stock 🥰
We are stocked back up, with more coming next week.

I had purchased some Suet when rendered down was to soft and not what you expected from us. Was there anything wrong no - other then consistency in the end product. I know you have come to love our tallow creams. I prefer to wait for the product to be as expected rather than sell you something you’re not expecting.

Good thing we use ALOT of tallow in our soap, that last 100 lbs will be rendered down and used in soap. So no waste. If you’re asking yourself why it was soft. There are several factors that can contribute to that. Time of year the animal was processed, their diet, their breed, I feel that last batch was higher in unsaturated fats - lending to a softer tallow. I have purchased from that farm prior with the end results I look for. This time it was ment to be for soap. I am fortunate I work closely with several local farms. They will all continue to be farms I work with.

Again, thank you for your patience and understanding. We hope to not run out again any time soon.

What should we do about these well aged long forgotten about soaps?

They are well aged bars, rich creamy lather as you would expect from our soaps. Oh don't drop them on your toe they are as hard as a rock 😂

Sometimes soaps get put aside due to their wrapper getting wet at markets, sometimes they get pulled cuz they are the last of that scent and we need to fill the space, sometimes a round bar will get poured with left over soap batter.

After time scent can fade, some of these have some have not.

Should we cut them in half and make up some “soap scrap bags” or toss them in a basket for you to pick out at a discounted rate?
