Mitcheldean Soap

Mitcheldean Natural Soap is a home grown business making traditional handmade soaps bursting with fragrance. They are made in The Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire by Sara Gates, who started the business from her own kitchen. In her own words; "I started it as I wanted to work from home because of the children, however it soon outgrew my kitchen and I had to take on a unit. This was much better as I didn't have to keep clearing up to make meals etc, and then get everything back out again. I love that the our soap is never tested on animals just on hubby first. I really enjoy making the batches of soap, it's a bit like cake making but you must not get the two mixed up!".
Mitcheldean Soap is a truly natural and beautifully handmade local product.

All Mitcheldean soap bars are made from natural ingredients, no artificial ingredients or nasty chemicals, or parabans and are very kind and gentle to the skin. The quality of the soaps is exceptional and the fragrances are a natural delight. Mitcheldean soap bars contain locally sourced ingredients where possible, for example, the addition of honey is from a smallholding in The Forest of Dean. It’s great to see this company fully utilise local resources and support other local natural based businesses.

Here at The Candle Tree we have lovely selection of Mitchedean soaps, including; Honey & Oatmeal, Lavender & Poppyseed, Lemon & Lavender, Orange Lemon & Lavender, Tea Tree & Lime, Vanilla & Orange. Also, our new customer favourite is proving to be Rosemary & Lavender, beautifully fragranced with a balance of aromatic herbs.  All soaps are naturally scented with natural extracts and essential oils.  

Mitcheldean soaps are not only a great natural essential to your toiletry collection, but also make wonderfully pretty gifts with their artistically printed packaging. They are available in store at The Candle Tree in Gloucestershire and also on our online shop, where you can take a look at our other fabulous products!
