Where to Purchase Soap Making Oils in Bulk??

[baltochef]

I live in the Mid-Atlantic area of the United States..

I am looking for recommendations as to where other members feel are good businesses from which to purchase oils in bulk quantities for soap making..

The oils that I am most interested in are olive oil, castor oil, palm oil, and coconut oil..Preferably organic if possible..

I am now a raw vegan so I do not wish to use any animal products in my soaps..

I hope to get started making soap again in Feb 2009 after a 10 year absence from doing so..

So, if any members would care to chime in with recommendations as to where they purchase their oils, I will be greatly appreciative..

Thank to any that answer my questions..

Happy Holidays!!!!

ONLINE RESOURCES

From Nature with Love and Mountain Rose Herbs are two online resources that I know of with reasonable prices for their oils in bulk. Mountain Rose Herbs gives you discounts (%) base on how many lbs you order. HTH. [/url]

Columbus Foods in Chicago is probably your best bet, http://soaperschoice.com/

Columbus Foods would be my 1st choice for bulk too.

oils by nature is another one - once you combine prices and shipping it is sometimes a better deal than columbus. occasionally.
