Formulating Cold Process Soap Recipes

I took a cold process soap making class through The Nova Studio many years ago.  Lori Nova had a great recipe that she created.  I never used her recipe since I was afraid to try it because I thought I would mess it up.  But when I got brave to do my first batch, I wounded up using a Soap Quick mixture from Misson Peak Soap in Fremont.  I really loved it because someone else had the measured out the ingredients exactly.  Now that Mission Peak is no longer in business, I guess I have to try and venture out and do a batch from a recipe.  But if you are braver than I am and want to formulate your own batch, I found a post from The Soap Queen called Formulating Cold Process Soap Recipes.
