Cheese Wax is a specialised coating designed to preserve and age cheese effectively. Made from food-grade paraffin wax and selected additives, it creates a protective barrier around the cheese, preventing moisture loss and inhibiting microbial growth. This barrier helps maintain the cheese’s texture and flavour during ageing. It is widely used for cheeses like Gouda and Cheddar, ensuring they remain in optimal condition throughout their shelf-life. These bright coloured waxes improve marketing appeal, by catching the eye of any consumer.
Different colours are made using Paradip KS2 Red L, Paradip Black N1, Paradip Yellow B1, Paradip Natural 1 and White as base.
