Beeswax 1oz Bar

Beeswax 1oz Bar is made of 100% pure, all natural Ontario beeswax. Cosmetic and food grade it has a multitude of applications. It can be used for making small candles, soaps, lip balms, skin creams, furniture polish, waterproofing shoes, sewing etc.

While beeswax pellets are sometimes more convenient to mix with other ingredients, they are more expensive and a simple cheese grater from the Dollar Store is fine to use to grate the beeswax block into convenient shavings that can melt / mix more homogeneously with potentially other ingredients. If you find the block too hard to grate, then just use a hairdryer to gently soften it up.
