Formaticum Cheese Storage Bags

Plastic wrap traps moisture, which can cause cheese to sweat, grow mold, or take on a plastic-like flavor. These porous, wax-lined bags allow the cheese to breathe while maintaining the necessary humidity to prevent it from drying out.

Yes, you can reuse them as long as the paper remains clean and intact. Simply wipe them out or let them air out between uses, though you should discard them if they become heavily soiled or torn.

These bags are versatile enough for everything from soft, bloomy-rind cheeses like Brie to firm, aged cheddars. They are specifically designed to handle the different moisture requirements of various artisanal cheeses.

The bags feature a simple fold-top design. Once you place your cheese inside, simply fold the top down to secure it; the wax-lined paper holds the fold well, keeping the contents protected.

While the bags allow for essential airflow, the wax lining helps contain the cheese's natural aroma better than standard parchment paper. However, for particularly pungent varieties, you may still want to store the bagged cheese inside a container in your refrigerator.

Each bag is designed to hold approximately 8 ounces of cheese. The 6.25" x 11" dimensions provide enough room to wrap standard wedges or blocks comfortably.
