How to use beeswax wraps: wrap, wash & reuse for 2+ years.
Fold the wrap over your food or container and press gently — the warmth of your hands forms the seal. Wash in cool water, air-dry, and one wrap replaces cling film for up to two years.
How do you use beeswax wraps?
Five steps, two years of use.
-
01Get them ready
Scrunch the wrap a few times in your hands to warm and soften it. That gentle honey scent? That's pure beeswax — the smell of a wrap made with zero synthetic ingredients.
-
02Wrap it
Fold the wrap over your food or container and press with your palms. The warmth of your hands makes the wax tacky, molding it into a snug, tight seal.
-
03Use it
Wrap half an onion, half a watermelon or freshly baked sourdough bread to keep your food fresh — or a bar of soap for travel and a bouquet of fresh flowers. Naturally antibacterial beeswax helps keep food fresh, while organic coconut oil and tree resin give the wrap its gentle cling. And unlike plastic, the wrap breathes — so your food stays fresh, not sweaty.

04How to wash beeswax wraps
Rinse the wrap with cool or lukewarm water and dish soap. Use a cloth or sponge to wipe it down like you would your dishes, then rinse off. DO NOT use hot water — it will melt the beeswax and ruin your wrap.

05How to dry beeswax wraps and re-use it
Once washed, wraps need to air dry. We have a small clothing line in our kitchen, but you can simply drape them over other drying dishes or even your faucet. No need to wring them out. Store with your tea towels in a dry place — or save the packaging for an easy way to keep your wraps organized.
Melted your wrap with hot water?
Don't toss it — it can be fixed.
- Cheese
- Bread & sourdough
- Fruit and veg halves
- Leftovers
- Snacks
- Soap for travel
- Fresh flowers
- Raw meat or raw egg (wraps can't be washed hot)
- Microwave or oven
- Hot water of any kind
More than food storage.
SuperBee wax wraps offer an eco-friendly alternative to plastic — a replacement for plastic wrap and plastic containers, and plastic-free food storage for leftovers and snacks.
Wax wraps are fine and proven for cheese, but avoid wrapping meat or egg in them, as you cannot wash them hot. Beeswax is a natural antibacterial agent, while the coconut oil and tree resin make our wraps sticky so they shape to your food.
They also help you organize items throughout your home — and you can buy them in a handy beeswax wrap set, too.
