How is custom freezer paper different from wax or parchment paper?
Freezer paper is coated on one side and usually used for freezing meat. Whereas, wax paper is coated on both sides and is used for short-term use. Furthermore, parchment paper is heat-resistant and is used for baking and cooking.
Can freezer paper be recycled?
Freezer papers with poly coating are usually not recyclable. On the other hand, some wax-coated papers are compostable, depending on their formulation. For accurate details, ask the supplier and look at the local recycling guidelines.
Can I use Custom Freezer Paper for non-food items?
Yes, our freezer papers are versatile and can be used for various purposes other than wrapping or preserving your food items. For example, you can use them for arts & crafts, quilting, screen printing, and even painting due to their ability to stick temporarily to fabric and surfaces when ironed.
What type of coating is best between polyethylene and wax coatings?
Polythylene coating is best for long-term use, whereas wax coatings work best for short-term moisture resistance and food storage.
Are these oven-friendly?
No. Our freezer paper is not supposed to go into the microwave or the oven since they have a wax coating that may melt under high temperatures.
Can I write on Custom Freezer Paper with a pen or marker?
Yes, the uncoated side of your wax paper roll is writable with a pen or marker.
What is the shelf life of freezer paper?
A properly stored freezer paper — in a cool, dry environment, away from sunlight and humidity — can last 12 to 24 months. Contact the supplier to get the accurate details.
