Dissolvable Labels Q&A

A dissolvable label is a great new way to temporarily mark different items. They dissolve with warm water. Simply hand wash the dish or place it in the dishwasher, and the sticker removes in less than 30 seconds! You never have to worry about your stickers baking on in the heat of the dishwasher and gathering bacteria.

Plus, all your containers stay looking fresh and clean! Our dissolvable stickers are made with a cornstarch base which allows them to dissolve and leave no residue. There won’t be any residue left in the dishwasher either.

We recommend not putting them anywhere near the water until you’re ready to clean them off. We also recommend not using them in the oven.

We often have restaurants using these labels for their food prep. However, that isn’t the only place they can be used! We recommend using them at home.

Place them on leftovers to remember when you made them and what they are. Then, stick them in the freezer and know the label will stay stuck. After you finish the food, stick the dish in the dishwasher without worrying if the label will come off!

These labels are also perfect for canning purposes. Write when the food was made and when it expires so you know you’re always eating well! Then, like before, pop the finished food jars in the dishwasher and once again have a perfectly clean jar for the next canning season!

Masking tape is certainly fast and cheap, but it can’t compete with our dissolvable labels! Masking tape bakes onto your dishes in the dishwasher. Then your dish is ruined.

The residue collects bacteria, and it is dangerous and unsightly. Our labels are quick and easy to place on the item and affordable! Paying a few extra dollars to keep your dishes looking brand new and avoid harmful bacteria is worth it.

Use a pencil, pen, or permanent marker! No matter what you use, it will disappear along with the label. All three of the writing utensils write well on the paper material.

We have over 50 options for a dissolvable label. There are some that you don’t write on that say “Use First”. Others have no words on them, and you can write whatever you want. Our most popular is our food prep label which comes in multiple languages!

And, if you’re really into masking tape, we even have a dissolvable label roll that works like tape but comes off clean! Pick your favorite for whatever activity you are going to use them for. Want a sample? Be sure to email us and we can set that up!
