Beeswax Wraps
Locally Handmade bees wax food wraps
Great gifts!
Bees wax wraps are a great way to wrap cheese, vegetables, bread, fruit, fresh herbs, and baked goods, even soap or your toothbrush! They are reusable, easily cleaned, compostable and made from natural ingredients. They can totally replace cling/saran wrap and reduce your single use footprint.
The special use of beeswax and coconut oil provides the wrap with anti-bacterial properties.
Use the warmth of your hands to wrap the wax wrap around a piece of food or over a bowl or cooled casserole dish. When the wrap cools - within seconds - it holds its seal.
Your wrap keeps food fresh in the freezer for 2-3 weeks. Since your wraps are naturally breathable, we recommend you check on your food after this time to ensure its freshness. Great for freezing pizza dough and baked goods.
Do not use Beeswax Wraps in the microwave, with hot foods, or with meat products. Avoid leaving wraps in direct sunlight.
Compost your wrap at the end of its useful life.
Your new wrap needs crumpling up into a ball and unrumpling – that’s because it activates the ingredients
To clean your wrap (I do mine minimally with the soft side of a sponge)
Rinse the wrap with cool or lukewarm water and a little eco-friendly dish soap.
Once washed, the beeswax wraps need to air dry.
You don't need to wring out the wrap, maybe just a flick!
Once dry, gently fold the beeswax wraps and store them in a drawer, basket or on a shelf, or leave hanging from your fridge for an easy grab when you’re in rush.
Choices: random colour selection at this time.
Postage extra.
