Marmalade Mercantile Beeswrap Food Wraps

Hand-wash the wraps in cool water using a mild, eco-friendly dish soap. Avoid hot water, as it will melt the beeswax coating, and lay them flat to air dry.

Avoid using these wraps with raw meat, raw fish, or extremely hot foods. The heat and juices can compromise the integrity of the wax and make the wraps difficult to sanitize properly.

With proper care and regular use, these wraps generally last between six months to a year. You will know it is time to replace them when the wax coating begins to wear thin or no longer adheres well to itself.

The warmth of your hands is the secret. Simply wrap the sheet around your food or bowl and hold it in place for a few seconds; the heat from your palms will soften the wax, creating a secure, airtight seal as it cools.

Yes. Because they are made from 100% natural materials—cotton, beeswax, pine resin, and coconut oil—you can cut them into strips and add them to your home compost bin once they have reached the end of their useful life.
