Handcrafted in small batches in the USA and cold pressed - which take 4-6 weeks to cure! Which makes cold pressed soaps the best of the best.
We've found some customers prefer a high fragrant smell and others prefer a minimal smell with more of a "soap" undertone. Under scent you can always find which soaps have more of a fragrant smell vs soap smell :)
NOTE: Every soap will differ in style and design as they are each handmade. Some will have an over abundance of color while others will be minimal. We do our best to balance out each per order so you don't overwhelming have one style over the other with design :)
Sodium hydroxide?
Sodium hydroxide is a chemical compound that holds or maintains the pH of skincare products, also known as lye. In soap, it’s combined with animal fat or vegetable oil in a process called saponification. Essentially, soap is a mixture of base oils, a diluted lye solution, and herbal additives.
During the soap making process the lye is heavily diluted with water, and added to the oils to create a thick mixture. The mixture is then added to a mold for 24 hours to harden, and set to cure for 4-6 weeks. During the curing process, the soap bars lose water weight, in which the sodium hydroxide is dissolved. Therefore lye is needed for the chemical process that soap goes through, but it's not present in the final product.

The best way to make Mexican Hot Chocolate is with clay cookware - a Mexican Kitchen’s staple. Passed down by the Aztecs, it’s still preferred for the unique flavor it lends to food. This handcrafted jug is made with ancient hand-molding techniques from the past, and finished with new techniques (and a lead-free glaze, of course) to be both functional and decorative. It’s perfect for making traditional Mexican hot chocolate.
Unexpected Versatility
The jug can be used directly over heat (a flame or electric range) - just add milk and chocolate. Try it with the food of the Gods, Oaxacan chocolate, and whisk until frothy with the molinillo. The pot can also be used to heat teas, soups, and coffee. And can we talk about its triple functionality as a vase or decoration? You’ll be impressed.
Note: This jug is a cooking vessel, and not recommended as a water pitcher as the terracotta clay will sweat. The condensation that collects on the outside is normal, and does not imply that the jug is leaking.
Meet The Artisan
Rodolfo Pila has been making Mexican ceramics with the help of his father since he was a boy. After attending cultural school for ceramics, he has built a repertoire blending both traditional and modern techniques. Today he makes beautiful, functional ceramics. He also makes the clay cups for our Cantaritos Kit. Learn more about him here.
Dimensions & Care
Dimensions: 9" H (to rim) 10.5" H (to top of handle) 4.5" Diameter at rim, 22" Diameter at center, 3.5" Diameter at base.
Capacity: Appx. 68 oz / 2 Liters (these are all handmade so variations in size will occur).
The hot chocolate jug gets better with time and care. It needs to be cured, but it’s worth it. To cure it, fill with cool water below its rim and heat until the water becomes warm for 10 minutes on the stove. Turn off the heat, and allow the water and pot to cool. Discard the water, and your clay pot is ready to use.
Clean with lightly soapy water and let dry completely before storing.
