Canning wax, also known as paraffin wax, is a type of wax used primarily for sealing jars and preserving food. It forms a protective layer on the surface of the food or jar, helping to prevent spoilage by reducing exposure to air and moisture. While it was commonly used in home canning in the past, its use has declined due to concerns over food safety and the development of more effective sealing methods, such as metal lids and vacuum seals. Today, canning wax is primarily used for decorative purposes or in certain specific food applications.
