FAQs
Is this wax food-safe?

How often should I wax my cutting board?
Frequency depends on usage, but applying the wax once a month is generally recommended to keep the wood properly conditioned.
Can I use this on a bamboo board?
Yes, the wax is safe and effective for bamboo boards as well as traditional hardwoods.
Does this product have a scent?
Because it uses natural beeswax, it has a very subtle, mild, and natural scent that does not transfer to food.
What should I do if the sponge gets dirty?
You can rinse the applicator sponge with mild soap and warm water, then allow it to dry completely before using it again.
Troubleshooting
The wax feels too hard to apply.
Place the tin in a warm area for a few minutes or warm it slightly between your hands to soften the texture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before the first application, ensure the wooden board is completely free of food debris and moisture. The wax is compatible with most hardwoods commonly used in cutting boards, such as maple, walnut, and cherry. To care for the product itself, keep the metal tin tightly closed and stored in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources. Avoid exposing the wax to extreme temperatures, which could alter the consistency of the beeswax blend.
