Dolce Mia of Sonoma County - News & Reviews

True Soap

Dolce Mia is proud to offer fine, luxurious, all natural soap. Our soap is 100% real soap—true soap—made from a family recipe that has produced creamy, moisture rich soap for over 40 years.  Each bar is made with pure vegetable oils (NO detergents or animal testing) and contains our signature fragrance blends, plant-derived oils and essences.  Superior ingredients and a high percentage of glycerine helps skin retain its natural moisture.  So lather up… a silky and delicious cleansing experience for your skin and mind awaits you!  Our soap is environmentally friendly and biodegradable, of course.

Pure and Natural

Our all natural soaps are 100% true soap–so pure, so simple, so natural we don’t even have to list ingredients on the label—because it’s nothing but soap!  Our liquid soap is gentle enough to also use as a natural shampoo. It is and has great natural cleaning power.

Ingredients

Our soaps are made using the finest natural vegetable oil recipe, with kosher glycerine added for its moisturizing properties.  To this natural soap base we add certain natural oils and essences, chosen for their moisturizing, soothing or softening powers—fresh goat’s milk, real raw honey, olive oil, shea butter and aloe. 

Our soaps are hypo-allergenic, non-comedogenic, not tested on animals, contain no detergents, no sulfates, no surfactants, no alcohol and no sugar solutions.

Fragrances

As much as we insist on a all natural soap., we insist on superior fragrances.  We offer scents that inspire and calm—subtle, soothing scents.  We use fragrances blended just for us.  Pikake Flower for Hula Girl.  Ambery Lavender for Cowgirl.  Goat’s Milk soap with Almond for Western Tots.  Vanilla with hints of caramel and cocoa bean for Horsey Girl. Mango Tangerine for Surfer.  Signature blends make our soaps a true treat for the senses

Where it’s Made

When we set out to make soap, we looked for a factory that shared our values of quality, sustainability, and a respect for the environment.  We believed that an American factory could suit our needs as well as anyone.  We also hoped to be able to support our community by keeping jobs local and to keep transportation impact to a minimum.  What we found was all that we’d hoped for,  and more: a local family-owned company that has been manufacturing vegetable soap according to the same all-natural process for 40 years.

We are using the Western Tots invitations for our baby shower with at western theme.  The retro design is perfect.  We bought the thank you notes, and the photo album to match too!  This is perfect for our new mother to remember such a special occasion. — Fort Smith, Arkansas

Western Tots Thank You Cards

Can’t wait to get it, will be using it for samples of my work (I’m a silversmith) at the Calgary Stampede, if anyone is interested I’ll send them on to you.  I have a friend that owns a western store up here (in Alberta Canada) and will tell her about them too, do you do wholesale at all?  Love the western theme!!

re. Construction Trucks Picture Frame

The items I purchased are adorable.  I had this book as a child so these items were especially sentimental to me.  I was searching on the internet for vintage ballerina items and I stumbled upon your website. I had no idea that these items were even available!

Dolce Mia’s Fine Sonoma Soaps

With handwriting having become almost a lost art — it is no longer taught at our sons’ school — a handwritten note mean more today than ever, both to the writer and the recipient. Writing a letter with ink and paper is not only satisfying, it is often fun. It also presents an opportunity to record for posterity your thoughts, concerns and moods of the day. Emails, if not immediately deleted, are typically sent to a virtual fish-trap of a file folder, never to return again. But letters are mostly kept, providing a pleasantly tangible tree-ring record of our lives. Dolce Mia Designs with its new Blank Note Card Variety Packs invites you to engage in the meaningful, restful and age-old art of letter-writing, with style. For Summer, 2008, we offer five great designs to inspire you and add color and joy to your letters.

Pin-Up Playing Cards
These blank note cards are based on real (and really sexy) vintage pin-up girl playing cards from the 1950’s.

Western
Vintage cowboy note cards, from an age when men were men, and men wrote letters.

Paris
Ooo-la-la, Paris! Our Parisian poodle and vintage Eiffel Tower capture the elegance and panache of the City of Love.

Hawaiian
Vintage Hawaiian hula girl note cards add tropical cool to any correspondence.

Jungle Girl
Jungle Girl epitomizes feminine power, taking on tigers, panthers and giant gorillas with nothing but knives and spears, while her man cowers in the background, and clad only in her leapoard print bikini. If you want to believe, as we do, in Jungle Girl, then these are the cards for you.

Each set of blank note cards contains 8 cards, 2 each of 4 designs, with envelopes. The unique canvas band packaging makes a great keepsake.

The cards are GREAT! I could not be happier with them! The paper stock is nice & heavy, which I love. Thank you for having an adorable train pattern that doesn’t involve that darn blasted “Thomas the Tank Engine”…these note cards will be our thank you cards from our 3 year olds birthday party.

I plan to come back and order more products!

We got them and set them up in my son’s room (recently transitioned from animals to train decor — he’s 28 months). Both the clock and growth chart look great! This is about the 5th growth chart I’ve ordered, all previous ones have been disappointing. Thank you so much for this one — it’s perfect!

Thank you so much for getting them made/to me so fast! They are being sent out ASAP. I am sure my friend Amber (the girl that I am throwing the bachelorette party for) will be thrilled. I really appreciate your effort and keeping me posted along the way. My sister and her friends loved them too, I am sure they will be using your company for their next parties. Thank you!
