Pure Yellow Beeswax

Naturally Sourced and Carefully Filtered

Our yellow beeswax is sourced from local beekeepers and trusted beekeeper partners. This relationship-based sourcing helps us maintain dependable quality while supporting fellow beekeepers.

Our beeswax contains 100% beeswax with nothing added. It is not blended with paraffin, soy wax, artificial colors, fragrances, or fillers.

Because beeswax is a natural product, its shade and aroma can vary slightly between batches. Colors may range from golden yellow to amber, reflecting differences in floral sources, seasons, and the comb from which the wax originated.

Our Two-Stage Filtration Process

We carefully refine our beeswax using a two-stage filtration process.

First, the melted wax passes through an initial filter to remove larger pieces of natural debris and sediment. It is then passed through a food safe non-woven filter.

Our filtration process is designed to clarify the wax—not to add ingredients or alter it into a different type of wax.

What Is the Melting Temperature of Beeswax?

Pure yellow beeswax generally melts between:

144°F and 149°F — or 62°C and 65°C

Beeswax has a melting range rather than one exact melting temperature because it is a natural material made up of many different compounds. Its precise melting behavior may vary slightly depending on its origin and composition.

When melting beeswax, always use gentle, indirect heat, such as a double boiler. Never place beeswax directly over an open flame, and never leave melting wax unattended.

Common Uses for Yellow Beeswax

Yellow beeswax is valued for its firmness, workability, natural color, and mild aroma. It is commonly used for:

Candle Making

Beeswax can be used for molded, dipped, rolled, container, and pillar candles. Its relatively high melting range helps finished candles remain firm at warmer room temperatures.

Beeswax is commonly used to add structure and consistency to:

Lip balms

Salves

Beard balms

Body balms

Lotions and creams

Solid perfumes

Cosmetic formulations

Encaustic painting

Batik fabric art

Lost-wax casting

Decorative wax projects

Beekeeping

Beeswax can also be used for making or coating foundation and for other applications within the beekeeping industry.

A Natural Product from Beekeepers We Trust

Beeswax is a remarkable natural material created by honey bees to build the comb inside their hives. We respect the work that goes into producing it.

By sourcing from local and trusted partner beekeepers and carefully filtering each batch, we aim to provide dependable yellow beeswax for makers, craftspeople, beekeepers, and businesses.

Natural variation is part of what makes genuine beeswax unique. Each batch may have slight differences in color and aroma while retaining the familiar properties that make beeswax so useful.
