Wash them gently with cool water and a mild, eco-friendly dish soap. Avoid hot water, as it will melt the beeswax coating, and let them air dry completely before folding or storing.

They are excellent for produce, cheese, bread, and dry snacks. However, you should avoid using them with raw meat or fish, as the wraps cannot be washed in high-heat water to sanitize them properly.

The warmth from your hands is the key. Simply place the wrap over the container or around the food, then hold it in place for a few seconds; the heat softens the wax, allowing it to mold and create a secure seal as it cools.

With regular use, the wax coating will naturally wear down over time. You can often refresh them by placing the wrap in a low-temperature oven for a few minutes to redistribute the wax, or simply compost them once they no longer hold a shape.

No. Heat is the enemy of beeswax wraps. Both microwaves and dishwashers will melt the wax coating, ruining the wrap's ability to seal and preserve your food.
