Bring your tired beeswax wraps back to life!

Whether you made your wraps with your Dee’s Bees Blend, bought your wraps from another maker, or made them yourself with another recipe, you CAN use our blend to recharge your wraps!

Over time and with ongoing use the wax in your wraps will deplete. Often the fabric will still have a lot of life left in it, but the wrap simply dries out and no longer sticks the way it did.

You just need to top-up your wraps with our pre-blended block of beeswax, tree resin and coconut* oil.

Our recharge wax blend block comes with full instructions to re-wax your wraps, using either your oven or iron. And because it's exactly the same wax blend as we use to make wraps from scratch, you can even use this block as a 'starter' kit if you just want to make a few new wraps.

This 50 gram (1.8 oz) recharge block of blend will:

make four new wraps of 20 x 25 cm (8x9 in), OR
recharge many more tired wraps.

Be aware that you may need very little wax to recharge – it’s usually just that top layer you need to replace, so this block goes a long way!

This kit contains:

One x 50 gram block of beeswax wrap blend.
One instruction sheet.

A few more things you might want to know:

What’s in the blend?

Pure New Zealand beeswax, damar tree resin and Pacific coconut* oil.

* From 6 August 2023 we've switched from jojoba oil to coconut oil. We love that the coconut oil is grown in our neighbouring Pacific islands and we can help their economies, and the oil is refined right here in New Zealand. Jojoba is grown in the northern hemisphere, so switching to coconut saves a whole lot of mileage and is the greener, more sustainable option.

Why on earth is it in a plastic bag?

Aha! Gotcha! It's actually a genuine cellophane bag made from vegetable cellulose - fully biodegradable and home compostable. We're always happy to cut down on packaging though, so just let us know in the notes section at checkout if you're happy to go packaging free :)

I know what’s in the kit, but what else do I need?

Your tired wraps
Baking paper or parchment paper
An oven or iron (your choice of method)

I bought my wraps from another maker - will your blend work on them?

Yes. Other makers may use a slightly different recipe and different ratios, but they are all compatible with our blend. We're willing to bet you might even like your recharged wraps better than your original.

International Orders and Bee Products

We send our beeswax candles, wraps, DIY blend, and polishes worldwide and have never had a problem with border restrictions. Generally finished beeswax products are acceptable for import in most countries.

However, in some countries raw beeswax may not to be allowed in order to protect the health of their local bees. We get it. After all, Kev and Dee are beekeepers, first and foremost. On that basis, we opt to make our beeswax blocks and pellets available to New Zealand addresses only.

Some countries may have various border or import charges - please note that you will be responsible for any such charges.

What about packaging? Do you use plastic?

We're committed to eliminating plastic wherever we can - the clear bags our kits are packaged in are NOT plastic. They are genuine cellophane, made from vegetable cellulose and are fully biodegradable and home compostable.

And we're very happy to announce that the black courier bags we use are also NOT plastic! They are made from plants and are fully biodegradable, and home compostable.

Recently we've also introduced coloured courier bags which are made of recycled plastic and these can be re-recycled in your soft plastics.

Beeswax food wrap

Very happy with product. Highly recommend using Dee’s Bees NZ.

Was very excited to give this a try. We used the ironing method. It was so hard to shave off the wax as well as grate it. Will need to try a different way next time. We had enough to make 6 big warps and 6 small. With half to spare. (We bought 2 bars).

The Dog ate them

I normally give instructions for courier to put parcels behind mailbox, this time I didn’t as I knew no one was going to be home- they threw it over anyway and my dog ripped bag open tearing the wraps and chewed holes through other 2 as he munched on the wax blocks. Fast delivery just a shame I didn’t get a chance to use them. My dog rates them highly- he loved them.

Wonderful easy way to make beeswax wraps with kids!

My class have been looking at ways to help the environment and wanted to make beeswax wraps to reduce the huge amount of plastic in their lunchboxes. These blocks made it so easy and successful! Thanks for a great product and for supporting teachers and schools to provide these experiences for our children to make a positive difference in the world.

Awesome

Awesome bees wax, so easy to work without! Comes with great, easy to follow instructions for making wraps. Highly recommend!!

Fantastic!

Quick delivery - arrived in about a week. Lots of fun to make, I enjoyed making these wraps out of material that I've chosen and I like that I can make them any size I need

Great product and instructions

The instructions with the product were very good and had no trouble following them and making the wraps, but just hope have them thick enough. Found some cottons worked better than others.

A1 DIY Beeswax blend blocks for Wraps

So happy with these naked blended blocks that I bought for making Beeswax Wraps at home. After buying beeswax and combining 2 other products into it, which wasn’t easy I’ll only ever use the blended blocks now-perfect with the “ oven” method.

Naked block

Received block in a timely manner and the instructions were clear and easy to follow. The product met expectations. We are now glad wrap free 👍🏼

Make your own!!

Wow! You have done an amazing job of empowering your customers to learn more about the creation process with your clear instructions and beeswax blocks. I’m super proud of my wraps, thank you so much!

Wonderful wax wrap kits.

I loved receiving Dees beeswax wrap kits. They was on my doorstep in no time. Ready to go with clear instructions and good advice on how to make great wax wraps. I ran two workshops teaching people how to make their own and everyone raved about how user friendly the kit was. Thanks for making my workshops a success. Liz. From The Makers Table.

Well presented, clear instructions, smells great!

Thanks for a great product, arrived the next day and in wonderful condition.

Fabulous and easy to use. I made wraps with a group of 8 year old children. Great instructions and the sample wrap was awesome. The children were able to see what they were creating and follow the instructions effortlessly. We ended up making 20 medium sized wraps! Highly recommended. Great product, great price, great service. Thank you Dee's Beez!
