When Bittersweet was founded  thirteen years ago, we had one main objective in mind when creating our company.
To produce a product line thats character was built and inspired by days gone by.
A time and period that reflected simpler days, when less was more, and items were made by hand and
passionately created.         

The idea was not so much to re-create products from the past, but rather to re-visit an era when workmanship
and quality were king.                     
    A time when the greatest attention was paid to the smallest of detail to ensure that people could enjoy
    their purchase to the fullest, from beginning to end.

    The proprietress of Bittersweet, Jill McDowell, Lincoln considers soap making her baby! Through hours of research she's
    created a unique formulation very much like the one used by her French grandmother. Bittersweet Soap contains large
    amounts of moisture  rich olive oil, clean spring water and natural nutrients, like goat milk and French Clay.
    Each bar is cut by hand and then wrapped  in beautiful packaging focusing on the tiniest of detail. After all, what's outside
    should appear as pretty and special as what's inside.

    Even though Jill considers soap manufacturing to be her expertise , She also takes pride in making other unique hand-made
    goods and home keeping essentials. All of those creations are crafted with her own two hands. She's  passionate about
    incorporating vintage inspired details into all of her designs and packaging.

    You won't find Bittersweet hand-made items mass produced or sitting from store shelf to store shelf. Jill believes in a more
    personal approach while marketing her products, and realizes this makes them more unique and special and is proud of that  
    philosophy.

    Bittersweet  may be found on our  web site and at the Saturday Studio located in Jill's home.

    Occasionally, Bittersweet  participates in a showing of our new items,  and we announce  those events on our web site.      


    We'd be  happy to answer any questions you might have about our natural and hand-made essentials.
