Beeswax wraps are an eco-friendly alternative to plastic wrap for food storage.

They are made with a blend of beeswax, tree resin, and organic jojoba oil, which work together to create a natural and breathable barrier that keeps food fresh.

The beeswax wrap can be molded and shaped around bowls, sandwiches, and other food items to keep them protected and contained.

They are reusable and can be washed with cool water and mild soap, making them a sustainable choice for food storage. In addition to being practical, beeswax wraps are also attractive and can be used as a decorative element in your kitchen.
