How to Use & Care for Your Beeswax Wraps
- These wraps are easy to clean. Simply use cool water and a mild, natural soap, if needed, such as castile or glycerin soap.
- Keep away from all sources of heat, such as, microwaves, stoves, hot or warm water, hot or warm food. Allow food to completely cool before wrapping in beeswax wrap.
- Not for use with meat or fish.
- Beeswax food wrap will feel stiff and waxy to the touch. The warmth of your hands is enough to mould it around food and dishes.
- The wraps may have a mild beeswax odour. The odour should not transfer to food.
Materials Used
The hand crafted organic beeswax bag is made with:
- 100% organic cotton
- 100% organic beeswax
- 100% organic tree resin
- 100% organic jojoba oil
Organic cotton is an eco friendly fabric, which is made using cotton that is grown without the use of pesticides, herbicides or other chemical fertilizers, and is simply better for your health and the environment. The low-impact dyes in this fabric will not contaminate your food through these wraps.
Beeswax is a natural and non-toxic ingredient. It is edible and therefore safe to use with food products. It is also waterproof so it keeps unwanted moisture out while locking in the natural moisture of the wrapped food.
Tree resin has antibacterial and antifungal properties and is thought to help prevent the growth of yeast and other fungi, and to reduce the risk of contamination of food.
Jojoba oil is a liquid plant wax that is also thought to have antibacterial and antifungal properties.
