Now Designs Beeswax Food Wraps

The warmth of your hands is the key. Simply wrap the cloth around your food or bowl and hold it in place for a few seconds; the heat from your palms softens the beeswax, allowing it to mold and seal securely as it cools.

It is best to avoid using these wraps for raw meat or fish. Because the wraps are porous and require cold-water washing, they cannot be sanitized to the level necessary to safely handle raw proteins.

With proper care, these wraps generally last about six to twelve months. You will know it is time to replace them when the wax coating begins to wear thin or the fabric no longer holds its shape effectively.

Wash them by hand in cool water using a mild, eco-friendly dish soap. Avoid hot water, dishwashers, and microwaves, as high heat will melt the beeswax coating and ruin the wrap.

Yes, because they are made from natural cotton and beeswax, they are fully biodegradable. Once they have reached the end of their usable life, you can cut them into strips and add them to your home compost bin.
