1/8 sheet Explanation: Beeswax can be sold in sheets, but usually as full sheets. 1/8 or 1/4 of a sheet seems pretty small, but that's what the translation is. https://glorybee.com/beeswax-sheets https://www.kelleybees.com/beeswax-sheet-50.html |

(no direct equivalent) Explanation: I was recently looking into purchasing some of these beeswax food wraps, and as far as I was able to discover, there is no standardized equivalent term. For example, a quick search for this item on Amazon will show a large variety of differently termed sizes. You will probably have to just do what you said in the original question: use "medium/large sheet" in a generic sense and provide the dimensions alongside. |
