Frequently Asked Questions About Mini Babybel
Is the red wax on Mini Babybel edible?

Can you eat Mini Babybel wax?

What is Mini Babybel?
Mini Babybel is a small, individually portioned cheese from the French Bel brand, best known for its round shape and brightly coloured wax coating. The cheese inside has a mild, milky flavour and a supple texture, making it easy to eat on its own or with crackers. It works as a lunchbox snack, a quick bite between meals, or part of a simple breakfast; in France and elsewhere, it is also commonly paired with fruit or bread. As a cheese, it provides protein and fat while containing very little carbohydrate: it has 22 g of protein per 100 g. Pair one with fresh fruit or vegetables for a more varied snack.
