We celebrated a fabulous May Day at our brick and mortar. It was a joy to hand out May Day baskets to our wonderful customers that attended. Thanks for coming. 
Fast speed ahead to Mother's day, and we've fastidiously selected a grouping of some of our favorite things from Bittersweet. Artisan soap, soaking salt, lip balm, and organic cotton mitts create a unique bundle. 
We'll be announcing the "scent of the month", and introducing new soaps in the merry month of May. 
Keep posted, as our menu changes quickly as we sell out of soap. 
We hope you have a few days to take in all the goodness Spring has to offer. 
Best wishes for a blessed Spring.

Bittersweet is happy to introduce our latest new yummy scent, Honey! It's a challenge to put into words how lovely this scent really is.  
This delicately perfumed soap smells like sniffing a jar of fresh gooey honey. 
We're excited to offer this amazing new fragrance to our line of Bittersweet products. 
It smell sweet as honey!

We're excited to bring this months "scent of the month", Lavender Vanilla!
This lovely aroma offers the perfect blend of two of our favorites. 
The Apothecary shop is eager to help you create a custom body product infused with this aromatic combination. 
​

Along with a new month, arrives a shiny fresh scent, White Flower. 
We usually reserve this popular floral bouquet for spring, but could not wait!
February is the month of love, and the perfect time to fill the air with a rich floral infusion. 
White gardenia tops the notes. One sniff will transform your mind to a tropical paradise where warm breezes blow, and aromatic flower smells fill the air. 
Bittersweet is excited to offer this exclusive blend in a variety of products. 
Including, bath salt, body spray, soap, basin oil, and dry oil. 
We are also offering small bottles of perfume, if you desire an intense aroma. 

Soap making is in super full production this month. 
I'll be adding a variety of Bittersweet signature soaps along with nouveau ones. 

Plans are in the works for a big clothing sale sometime this month. I'll keep you posted when a date is determined. You won't want to miss it!

Keeping it fresh and new, and revolving. 

Best wishes.

Five years has passed since we moved our shop inside the beautiful century old home. The changes that have occurred over the past five years are mind blowing, to say the least! 
We've scattered our uncommon shop with amazing new products, clothing lines, and accessories, and now inhabit most of the first floor. 
We're looking forward to another fulfilling year ahead, and plans are in place to make even more changes at our brick and mortar. 
Our Perfumery and "Scent Your Own" department is in demand. We've already expanded the popular service to accommodate an array of happy customers. We plan to cultivate and grow this department even more.   
Each month we'll be presenting a yummy new Scent of the Month in addition to our Custom Scent Department.  
Of course, we won't forget to include a new glorious menu of moisture rich olive soaps. We're busy manufacturing soaps throughout the year.  The cart du jour advances with the seasons, and you never know what scent will capture your heart. Of course, if it's retired, you may always recreate it in our fragrance department.  
We're excited to be offering these unique offerings.  

Best wishes for a safe and happy New Year.

I'm busy whipping up an assortment of olive and coconut soap! This is the time of year,  when I pull up my sleeves and dedicate my days to making soap.
Bittersweet Soap is similar to a fine wine, as it requires a lengthy time for the ultra rich blend to season, (up to six weeks.) My recipe is finicky, and also demands above freezing temperatures during the making. I believe the extra time is well worth the wait! I urge you to compare other hand made soap on the market. As you unwrap the beautiful handmade Italian paper, rub your fingers over the silky bar, and begin using it, you'll immediately notice the ultra rich creamy lather. I compare it to a lotion bar.
The wrapping... Each beautiful bar is hand wrapped in stunning  hand made Italian paper. We believe the outside should be as pretty as the inside!
I'll be adding new seasonal soaps to the menu as they become available. 
If you're searching for a unique, extra special gift, might I suggest, saying it with soap!

Bittersweet is anticipating a rich, golden fall... 
We're introducing aromatic new spice soaps, and hand picking an exclusive line of one of a kind clothing, accessories, and home keeping. 
We add new things every week to our menu, and welcome you to explore and tantalize your senses with eye catching, scratch and sniff, artisan. 
Our shop is open Wednesday through Saturday, 10:30 - 4. We're open until 9 pm on fourth Fridays, and expand our regular hours during special events. 

Summer time and the living is easy. In July we'll be celebrating the holiday season early by hosting a Christmas in July. Join us and other Historic Downtown Liberty Shops as we celebrate Christmas in July. Bittersweet will offer giveaways, an early release of our popular Pumpkin Spice Soap as well as spreading good cheer and a festive mood. 

We'd like to thank everyone that attended our May Day Celebration.
This year despite rain and gloomy weather, we enjoyed a record breaking May Day!
Thank you.
