The wonderful benefits of beeswax wraps

So, let’s talk in details about the benefits of beeswax wraps.

1. They save you money

An average family uses about 20 plastic wrap rolls a year. The total yearly cost amounting to about 410 AUD. Meanwhile, beeswax wraps are reusable and they can last up to a whole year. The price of a 4-pack beeswax wraps is 55 AUD. Not only is this far cheaper but less wasteful for family consumption.

2. They keep your food fresh for a long time

Plastic wraps are not breathable. Covering your food with plastic can trap heat and make the food go bad faster as well as accelerates mold growth. Beeswax wraps, on the other hand, are breathable and so they keep food fresher for longer. If you have a habit of storing food then forgetting about it, beeswax wraps are just what you need. No more green fuzzy numbers in last week’s left overs.

3. They are reusable and easy to care for

Not only are beeswax wraps reusable but they are super easy to use and take care of. Before using a wrap, warm the wrap first with your hands. The heat makes the wrap more pliable, allowing you to mould it around food, kitchenware or fold it into a pouch to store food inside. When placed in the refrigerator, the wrap becomes firm and retains its shape. When you are done with the wrap, just wash it with cold water and soap or dish-washing liquid. After that, let it drip dry and it’s ready for use again! One more thing, just remember that beeswax wraps can’t be used to store raw, uncooked meat.

4. They are multi-taskers

Beeswax wraps can be used in many different ways other than just covering your leftover food. First of all, they can be used for fresh fruits like avocado, apple, orange… The wraps are flexible so they can hug the shape of sliced fruit better and create a seal, which keeps your fruits fresher for longer. If you are creative and enjoy oragmai, fold the wraps into a small pouches so that you can store snacks in your purse or your pocket. You can also roll the wraps to create a straw since you know how terrible plastic straws are to the environment. We are sure you will be able to find the perfect way to put the wraps to good use. They are multi-taskers after all!
