Wax paper is a handy kitchen tool that can be used in a variety of ways. Whether you’re baking or packaging food, wax paper can help keep your food fresh and make sure it stays delicious. If you’re new to using wax paper, here’s a beginner’s guide to help you shop for it:
Types of Wax Paper
When shopping for wax paper, you’ll find multiple types on the market. Both paraffin wax paper and non-stick wax paper are popular options. Paraffin wax paper is treated with paraffin wax and is often more affordable. Non-stick wax paper is usually coated with silicone, making it more expensive but also more durable and easier to use.
Size and Quantity
The size and quantity of wax paper you need will depend on how much you plan to use it. For general-purpose use, you could buy a box of pre-cut sheets or a roll of paper you can cut to your desired length. If you’re using wax paper for large-scale projects, such as wrapping sandwiches for an event, you may want to look for larger sizes or purchase multiple rolls.
Features
When selecting wax paper, consider any additional features you may need. If you’re looking to store food safely, look for wax paper that’s labeled as microwave-safe, oven-safe, or freezer-safe. You may also want to look for wax paper that’s treated to resist grease or moisture, or that’s treated to be non-stick.
Price
The price of wax paper will vary depending on the type, size, and quantity you’re buying. Generally, paraffin wax paper is cheaper than non-stick wax paper, while larger sizes and multiple rolls will cost more. Shop around to compare prices and find the best deal for your needs.
