OCEAN CITY, Md. — At Sunrise Diner in Ocean City, owner Sam Delauter is serving up more than pancakes, eggs and French toast.
Last year, he started making bars of soap using leftover grease from his restaurant. He said he wanted to find an alternative source of revenue as inflation and rising costs were eating into his business.
Using a recipe from his great-grandmother, Delauter filters the lard several times before adding in scents and letting the mixture set. He then cuts it into bars and sells them on his website Bumble Soap.
Watch the video above to see Delauter's interview on Good Morning Maryland about his soap-making business and the benefits of bathing with lard soap.
