Handmade Fruit Soap is made by artisans to look exactly like real fresh fruit.
The hand crafted artisan soap is available in the following fruit: lemon, apple, orange, peach and strawberry. There is also a boxed collection of three fruit soaps called ‘The Sultan’s Favourites’ which contains an orange, apple and lemon soap.
Three hundred years ago a small group of artisans living close to the Sea of Marmara in Turkey, began creating handmade soap fit for the Ottoman Palaces. The Sultans were so impressed with these handcrafted soaps, indistinguishable from fresh fruits, that they offered them as gifts to the delight of visiting royalty and important dignitaries.
The Sultans might be gone, but the tradition continues. These exquisite artisan soaps are still hand-made by the descendants of the original artisans working in the same area.
Turkey has a great bathing heritage. The Turkish Bath (hamman) goes back centuries and over that time much has been learned about what products are good to put on our bodies. The soaps are traditionally made using only pure ingredients. None of the products or ingredients have been tested on animals.
Handmade Fruit Soaps come beautifully packaged in a luxury gift box and make exquisite gifts for friends and loved ones.
