Beeswax wraps

My son uses these. He got his from BeeBee Wraps and is impressed with them. I keep meaning to look at website and order some myself.

First time I'd heard of these too. Just looked on Amazon and they say they last about a year if you use them a couple times a week. You can wash them and hang up to dry.
Then you throw them out, biodegradable.

Crikey, they are expensive, although you can make your own.
TBH I’ll carry on using my old Tupperware containers until they give up the ghost.
Heaven knows how I’ll dispose of them though. But that’s on another Gransnet thread!

How long does the beeswax coating last does anyone know? Do you renew the coating or have to buy more wraps??

Thanks Lara, TBH until I read this thread I’d never heard of Beeswax wraps.
I really must get out more.

What about greasproof paper? Does this behave in the same way as beeswax wraps?

Thanks for starting this thread Kate, I’d be interested to know too as I’ve been thinking of getting some to cut down on my cling film use. But I worry that they will start to smell stale after a while, does anyone know if that’s the case?
