What is Carnauba Wax?
Carnauba wax is a natural wax derived from the leaves of the carnauba palm tree, which is native to Brazil. It is often used as a food additive and coating agent, as it helps improve the texture, appearance, and shelf life of various food products, including candy, chewing gum, and baked goods. Carnauba wax is also used in cosmetic and pharmaceutical products as a thickener and emulsifier.
