Bulk raw beeswax from the wax cappings on honeycombs. Nice yellow color. Will contain some natural impurities. Sold by the pound. Uncooked, unfiltered, unprocessed – just raw beeswax.

Great Wax. I used it for demos during the St. Louis Renaissance Faire last year. It smelled wonderful, and has made great candles! I plan to order more for this next season!

Beeswax is one of my favorite smells in the world and I could smell this beeswax before I even got the box open. It’s amazing. The color is just like the photo, golden and beautiful. There are some "impurities" (as mentioned), but just a few, and a quick melt and filter took care of it. I’m totally in love.

I was very happy with the quality of the was and the fact that it was in chips and small pieces which made it very easy for me to use, I ordered 4 lbs and used all of it for my project! Thanks again for a great product. Paul G.

Oh my, this is my first experience with beeswax and I wanted to go made in the USA. Not disappointed. This stuff smells AMAZING. It’s sweet and lends a great scent to my homemade lotion bars! I can’t wait to use it in deodorants and lip balms! Be warned though, it doesn’t come wrapped or anything but beeswax doesn’t spoil. Best price I’ve found online and they’ve won my business! I’ll be back for more and I’ll try your delicious honey!
Thanks for the bee, also! Love that the artist signed it :p

Fabulous – RAW wax. As a beekeeper, I look for wax to pour molds – this wax is in its raw form, just what I expected, and wanted. I will be ordering again!
Stacy –

Excellent beeswax! Smells WONDERFUL!! We have purchased beeswax in the past, from other vendors, and their product did not compare to the quality of this product. Their beeswax either had a smoky or chemical smell to it. These type of scents are not what we want in our products! Sleeping Bear’s beeswax is of excellent quality! It melts well and blends good in our salves and hand balms! Buy some! You’ll love it!
