We Sell The Purest BeesWax Around!
Triple Filtered Ready To Use!
Beautiful Texture And Color!



Try our pure beeswax for your candles and crafts or as a great gift! Beeswax is produced by bees in the form of tiny scales which are "sweated" from the segments on the underside of the abdomen. To stimulate the production of beeswax the bees gorge themselves with honey or sugar syrup and huddle together to raise the temperature of the cluster. To produce one pound of wax requires the bees to consume about ten pounds of honey. Yes we did say 10 pounds of honey per 1 pound of bee wax!

We filter all the beeswax through a triple filter micron system. This takes the impurities out of the wax giving you longer burning candles and a smoother finish for any of your wax projects. Color will vary as virgin beeswax, immediately after being secreted and formed into comb, is white. It becomes darker with use inside the hive depending on the type of pollen, darkness of the honey, plus silk, and larval debris which are inadvertently incorporated. Rendered, but untreated beeswax comes in varying shades of yellow and tans. Pure white beeswax on the market has always been bleached or carbon filtered. If you want to stay all natural and earth friendly then avoid this!

At normal hive temperature of 37C (100F), wax can support a considerable weight and yet still be molded by the bee's jaws. Beeswax melts at 64C (147F).

Beeswax has a high resistance to the passage of heat but if cooled quickly will become pale in color, more brittle and liable to develop cracks due to rapid contraction. For this reason wax for exhibition is cooled as slowly as possible to preserve the texture and color. To preserve the aroma of fresh wax it should never be raised more than a few degrees above melting point and then only for a short period.

Have you ever tried using beeswax candles before? If not, you simply do not know what you are missing. Beeswax candles burn up to 3 times longer than paraffin candles and do not give off SMOKE or SOOT like paraffin candles do. 100% Pure Beeswax Candles offer amazing value and performance! You would need to buy up to four paraffin candles to equal one beeswax candle, making them an exceptional value! If you have allergies or can’t stand scented candles, try our 100% pure beeswax candles. They give off only a slight honey smell and do not cause any allergic reactions. Beeswax candles also have the brightest flame of any other type of candle making them a good choice for the dinner table or parties where long burn times are needed. Another good use is during Power Outages due to the bright flame and long burning characteristics. The above paragraph's content provided by: www.MorningSongGardens.com

IMPORTANT: When melting beeswax always use a water bath by placing the container of wax - probably a small saucepan - inside a larger pan of water. Never place a pan of wax directly on a hot plate or gas ring. Beeswax can easily become damaged by localized overheating and if it ignites can burn more ferociously than any chip pan fire. Beeswax does not boil - it just gets hotter and hotter until it ignites. Wax should only be melted in stainless steel, plastic, or tin plated containers. Iron rust and containers of galvanized iron, brass or copper all impart a color to beeswax and aluminum is said to make the wax dull and mud colored. The next time you see a very orange wax in may have been melted in a copper pan.

The uses for beeswax are many but these days the most common are for better quality Candles, soap, skin care products, hair care, fly fishing, the coatings of sweets and pills, furniture polish, batik art, putting on drawer runners to make them slide smoothly and in quilting and heavy sewing as it's put on the thread to ease its passing through tough materials.

Before you buy "Cheap Herbs And Spices" because you can save a buck or two ask yourself and the store you buy from these 5 important questions.

1) Are the herbs and spices stored away from light?
Florida Herb House stores all their precious herbs and spices in dark rooms. This ensures the most powerful products arriving at your door with the highest quality flavor and nutritional value! Many larger herb companies simply do not have the means to keep their herbs and spices in dark rooms because their warehouses are simply too large. Our small storage space is under 2500 sq. ft. and is easily manageable with respect to perfect temperature, humidity, and light conditions. Most herbs are sensitive to light and their nutrients are broken down when left exposed to sunlight and artificial light!

2) Are the herbs and spices stored in cool low humidity conditions?
Florida Herb House stores all their precious herbs and spices in optimal conditions which include temperatures that do not exceed 75 degrees fahrenheit or go below 65 degrees fahrenheit as well as dehumidifiers for the highest level of quality herbs and spices delivered to your door. Trust Florida Herb House for the best herbs and spices your dollar can buy!

3) Are the herbs and spices truly organic certified?
Most of the herbs and spices purchased from Florida Herb House are sold to us with an organic certificate which means they have been grown, harvested, and handled according to strict organic standards. We do sell these herbs as "All Natural" to keep our operating costs low which in turn allows us to pass the savings on to you. The herbs and spices we buy which are organic grown are sold to us organic certified through "QAI" Quality Assurance International and "OTC" Oregon Tilth Corp.

4) How are the herbs and spices I am buying packed and shipped?
All of Florida Herb House's herbs and spices are packed fresh to order in our exclusive flavor savor foil packets. These packets are completely recyclable and use about 1/10th the plastic of a typical two ounces spice jar. Most of our packets are resealable also for convenience. Only our small two ounce packets are not resealable as they are designed to be poured into your existing spice jars which helps "Save The Earth"!

5) Is there a certificate of analysis for the herbs and spices I am purchasing?
All Florida Herb House's herbs and spices have a valid "COA" (certificate of analysis) available to anyone wishing to have one. These COA's list the complete analysis of each herb/spice including tests for appearance, aroma, moisture, lead, ash, mold, bacteria and more. Should any of our herbs ever fail any of these tests then they are not on our shelves!
