Your Basics Shop Beeswax Food Wraps (4 Pack)

Your Basics Shop Beeswax Food Wraps are reusable wraps for covering bowls and wrapping food, sold under the eekoblue name in a pack of four. The box holds one large, two medium and one small wrap, printed with lemon, leaf and orange patterns, plus two wooden buttons with jute string for tying a wrap closed. They are made from 100% natural materials and are washable and reusable.

What is in the box

Each wrap is a sheet of fabric coated with beeswax. The coating makes the fabric slightly tacky, so it grips itself and the rim of a bowl when you press it with warm hands. The four sizes cover most everyday jobs: the small one for half a lemon, a cut avocado or the top of a jar, the medium ones for a sandwich or a block of cheese, and the large one for a salad bowl or a loaf of bread. The wooden buttons and jute ties hold a folded wrap shut, for example when it is used as a snack pouch in a lunch bag.

How it compares

Plastic cling film is used once and thrown out. A beeswax wrap does the same covering job for months: the brand says up to a year of regular use, after which the wrap can go in the compost. Compared with plastic containers, wraps fold flat in a drawer and take the shape of whatever you are covering.

How to use it

Hold the wrap in your hands for a few seconds so the wax softens, then press it over a bowl or around food and hold it until it sets. To make a pouch, fold the wrap into a pocket shape and close it with a button and string. After use, wash it, let it dry and fold it away. Keep wraps away from heat sources so the wax does not melt. The full directions are under How to Take.

Who it suits

It suits households cutting down on plastic wrap and zip bags, people who pack lunches and snacks every day, and anyone who wants a small, practical gift for a kitchen. The mixed sizes mean one pack covers most needs from cut fruit to a family-size bowl.
