Planet Friendly Beewax Food Wraps – Honeybee Wrap

Honeybee Wrap originated a family kitchen near Byron Bay over 10 years ago while looking for greener alternative to preserve food fresh without the use of plastic. Today’s reusable wraps are still 100% Australian made and manufactured.

These beeswax food wraps are of the highest quality on the market because they only use the best ingredients. Starting with 100% certified organic cotton (GOTS certified) with low impact dyes. This means that the cotton is grown without the use of chemicals and pesticides. The beeswax food wraps are actually so green that when you are finished with them you can put them in your worm farm or compost bin!

So it’s time to add a splash of colour to your kitchen! Perfect for storing all types of fruit, vegetables, breads, baking trays, snacks or lunches. Great for covering salad bowls, fermented food or platters at your next BBQ. The kitchen collection pack has many versatile sizes to use and they look fantastic in the fridge.
