Beeswax Wrap FAQs

How long do Beeswax Wraps last?

Our beeswax wraps will last for about 9 to 12 months with proper care.
Can you wrap anything?

Almost! We do not suggest wrapping raw meats or cooked meats directly, but you can put them in a bowl and cover with a beeswax wrap so that you avoid any direct contamination.

We advise you to ‘play it safe’ and avoid contact with these sorts of items. Citrus fruits work well in our beeswax wraps but not for long periods of time, especially pineapple. If the fruit is too acidic it will eat away at the  beeswax wrap over time. However short periods of time (3-5 days) are great and will keep your fruits fresher.

We do NOT recommend using them on hot/warm items, in the microwave, in the oven, on the stove, in the dishwasher, in the washing machine etc. This may result in permanent damage to your beeswax wraps or even cause a potential fire hazard.
