Capped beeswax, 0,5 kg

Caps of wax is the purest form of beeswax, which we extract at the Šerksnas Apiary by carefully uncapping the honeycomb filled with honey. This wax is the thin, natural layer that bees use to cover the ripened honey, making it not only clean but also rich in natural active ingredients.

Why should I choose the Šerkšnas Apiary Cover Wax?

• 100% pure and fresh: never used for brood rearing or in old combs – only from newly harvested combs.
• Light colour, honey scent: our wax retains its natural scent and soft yellow colour.
• Handcrafted: every gram is collected with care and love, with no extra processing.

Benefits:

• Due to its natural ingredients, cap wax has a mild antiseptic effect.
• Used in creams, balms and lip sticks to form a protective layer and retain moisture.
• Suitable for swallowing: often chewed together with honeycomb, it refreshes breathing and stimulates saliva production.

Usage:

• Natural cosmetics (creams, ointments, balms).
• Wax candles (candles give a pleasant scent when they burn).
• Suitable for food contact (wax canvas or cooking).
• In apitherapy, it is ideal for chewing with honey, for maintaining oral hygiene, for fresh breath; for inhalation or for making warming compresses.

Honeycomb cap wax is not only wax, but also a piece of bees’ wisdom and nature’s purity, brought from our apiary directly to your home.
