Yellow cheese wax is traditional and always in demand. Many hard cheeses are waxed prior to ageing. This process helps to retain the moisture within the cheese, and protect it from external mould while the cheese is aged. This high-quality yellow cheese wax by Mad Millie has been made the age-old way. Heat wax in a metal bowl to above 71 degrees Celsius and dip the cheese each side into the wax until fully covered, leaving no holes.
